With a strong foundation in English Language Arts and a deep understanding of how to support diverse learners, I tailor each session to meet individual needs and learning styles. I believe in creating a supportive, encouraging environment where students feel safe to ask questions, make mistakes, and grow. Whether it's improving grammar, analyzing literature, or writing essays, I bring energy, clarity, and empathy to every session to help students succeed and feel empowered in their learning journey.

I enjoy spending my free time reading books, especially fiction and stories that spark the imagination. I also love binge-watching TV shows and movies, particularly those based on book series—there’s something special about seeing a story come to life on screen. I'm a big fan of sports, especially watching softball and football. As a cheer coach, I’m passionate about mentoring young athletes and encouraging team spirit. Most of all, I take pride in supporting my kids in everything they do—whether it's cheering them on from the sidelines or celebrating their achievements.
