I am passionate about education and how people learn. I believe that we all have an inherent sense of curiosity and often the school environment can be detrimental to its development. I am equally passionate about history. The story of the past is the story of humans just like us that had the same problems and interests as we have today. I am fascinated and inspired by their stories. I have been teaching for 43 years but I am no less passionate now than I was when I started. I care about helping each student in their personal journeys in life and I am devoted to see each student succeed.
I have a BA in History from UCLA and a Masters in Education from Stanford.
I have taught in the public and private sector at the High School level and am currently teaching graduate level courses at the University of San Francisco in the School of Education training the next generation of teachers.
