I'm your teacher

My Classroom Mission
Carpe Diem!  I see it as my responsibility to inspire new ways of thinking and seeing the world.
If you are confused, it is okay. We are all here to learn. Ask a question.  I want to know what you are thinking. Remember there is no such thing as a stupid question.
 
About Me
I have lived in Chicago-land area, Milwaukee, Charlotte, and Mooresville. 

I lived in Milwaukee, Wisconsin for 8 years where I graduated from Marquette University with a Major in Secondary Education and Communications with a Minor in English. I taught for 3.5 years at a Milwaukee Public School

I moved to North Carolina in the summer of  2007.  I taught at a Charlotte Public School for a short stint before finding myself at Lake Norman High School.  I worked diligently and reflected on my role as a teacher to become National Board Certified in the fall of 2010.

I set a standard for myself and for my students and expect everyone to reach it.   I have been told that I am a demanding teacher, because of those standards, but I am always around to help you reach your maximum potential.  I will treat you as adults and try my best to prepare you for life outside of high school.

I look for respect, effort, enthusiasm, and openness to new ideas in my students and my own life.
