About Me

Hello! I'm a proud Brooklynite, born and raised in the vibrant heart of New York City. I'm a product of this incredible city's educational system, having graduated from John Dewey High School in 2016.  After graduating from Dewey back in 2016, I continued my educational journey to the College of Staten Island where I earned my Bachelor's in English 7-12.  Followed by receiving my Master's degree in TESOL education from Touro College. 
 
Fast forward to today, and I'm thrilled to be back in the classroom, this time as a completely different role. I'm currently in my fourth year as an English Language Arts (ELA) teacher, and every day brings new opportunities to inspire and empower my students. It is a personal goal of mine to continue to serve the local community that has provided many amazing opportunities for me.  
 
When I'm not shaping young minds, you can usually find me glued to the TV, cheering on my favorite football team with unwavering passion. Sports have always been a big part of my life, and football, in particular, has a special place in my heart. Whether it's the thrill of a touchdown or the strategy behind each play, I can't get enough of it.
