At Thomas Edison Charter School, one of our main philosophies is to have high expectations for our students. Similarly, we also have high expectations for all of our staff members. I love working here because I am challenged to go above and beyond in all aspects of my position. The atmosphere is one of hard work and dedication and I truly enjoy helping teachers rise to their fullest potential.

 I love music, traveling, art museums, the look of a new manicure, ice cream, the color black, nugget ice, yoga, well designed typography, the fall, organizing, practicing my Spalding handwriting, hot springs, lasagna, lightning storms at night, Tim Burton’s artwork, early mornings, road trips, rock climbing, puzzles, sunrises, sunsets, board games and generally doing things that are new.  Most of all, I love to learn.
