 I am excited to start my third year teaching social studies at the International School of Sosua.   I taught Social Studies for two years at Glenwood Springs High School in Colorado and spent one year with the special needs division of Aspen High School.  I have also taught ESL in Southeast Asia.  During the summer I spend my time as a river rafting specialist with an Autism camp.   I teach because I love working with students and believe in the importance of having a positive school experience
I also volunteer with the Cabarate boys program called INSPIRE DR. My PBL also works with this wonderful nonprofit. 
I am looking forward to getting to know each student and build a respect social studies and the world. Please contact me at any time if you have any concerns, questions, or ideas to share.
