My 20 years of experience as a High School classroom teacher of Spanish and Russian has allowed me to grow toward a level of mastery in the teaching of young adults that has resulted in immeasurable student growth. My work at two early college high schools has allowed me to become an Instructional Technology coach for my peers, our students, their families, and the administration of our campuses. My experience in language acquisition as a language learner and pedagogy as a teachers and tutor using the natural method gives me the insight into the learning process needed to be a master teacher and tutor of English, Russian, and Spanish.

I enjoy spending time with my family, learning new things (language, philosophy), praying, and teaching language and learning new languages and linguistic ideas.
