About Me

I am originally from Holyoke, Massachusetts and moved to Southern California for graduate school. Here's me in a nutshell: Family and friends keep me grounded and secure. My job keeps me motivated to learn and dedicated to finding new ways to help all children succeed socially and emotionally. My dog Nia keeps me active and smiling at the end of each long day.
