I am a current high school mathematics teacher at Central Catholic High School in Lawrence, MA. In my time as a teacher I have had experience teaching classes at all levels ranging from pre-algebra to AP Calculus BC. Prior to this, I completed undergraduate and graduate degrees in mathematics education at the University of Maine. While studying as a graduate student, I had the opportunity to manage an undergraduate tutoring center for mathematics and science students, and I also designed and facilitated training workshops for middle and high school math teachers who were preparing to enact the Common Core State Standards. Mathematics is the foundation for being able to critically analyze an astoundingly wide range of real problems, and I believe that students can greatly improve their ability to objectively reason about nearly any area of life through the study of math. In my spare time, I love to be active through activities like hiking, tennis, running, ballroom dance, and yoga.
