I am the first in my family to graduate both from high school and college. In 2014, I graduated with Honors from Mt. San Antonio College and obtained Associates Degrees in Mathematics and Natural Sciences. In 2016, I graduated as Cum Laude from Claremont McKenna College, a top-ten private liberal arts college, and received my Bachelors Degree in Latin American Studies with an emphasis in International Politics and History. In 2020, I graduated from Claremont Graduate University with a Masters in Education and teacher credential.

As an individual, I take pride in my indigenous roots and values of always striving to be honest, respectful, useful and grateful. These principles guide my daily living experience and educational praxis. As a teacher, one of my main goals is to honor, respect and support each student's unique educational journey and nurture values that strengthen their autonomy and self-reliance. My intention is to serve their individual and collective needs in order to prepare them for higher education and real life experiences.

In my classroom, I plan to create a culture of learning by working with the students to develop a productive, inclusive and empowering learning environment. My teaching philosophy is guided by social justice principles and I believe that every student has the potential to learn, grow and be successful in all their academic goals. I intend to accomplish this task by getting to know students personally and develop a respectful relationship to better serve and guide in their learning process.

My general goal as a teacher is to share with them all the applicable knowledge, wisdom, and skills, I have acquired through my journey to prepare them for higher education and the real world. I plan to do this by implementing a balanced combination of traditional teaching techniques and popular education practices that provide differentiated learning opportunities for a diverse student population.
