Mathematics has always been my favorite content area because it combines logic, creativity, and problem-solving. Throughout my career, I have helped students, families, and educators move beyond memorizing procedures toward true conceptual understanding mathematical concepts through visual models, systematic instruction, and scaffolded learning experiences.
From leading Parent University mathematics workshops to designing standards-aligned classroom resources for students and coaching teachers, I focus on helping learners understand the "why" behind the math. My approach emphasizes multiple representations, step-by-step systems, conceptual understanding, and confidence-building strategies that make mathematics accessible for all learners.
Facilitated a family engagement workshop designed to help parents understand modern mathematics instruction and support student learning at home. Topics included number sense, visual models, place value reasoning, problem-solving strategies, and mathematical discourse.
Focus Areas:
Number sense
Addition and subtraction strategies
Base-ten understanding
Visual models
Mathematical reasoning

The arts have always been at the center of my educational philosophy. Long before I became an instructional designer, academic coach, or curriculum developer, I was a musician, performer, and creative educator who understood the power of the arts to build confidence, communication, discipline, and self-expression.
My background includes vocal and instrumental music instruction, choir leadership, violin performance, theatre and acting experience, dance instruction, and family engagement through the performing arts. These experiences have shaped how I design learning experiences—helping students develop not only academic skills, but also creativity, collaboration, presentation skills, and confidence.
From directing performances and teaching music, to serving as a Set Teacher and Child Labor Coordinator for major television and theatre productions, I have witnessed firsthand how the arts prepare students for success both on stage and in life. Whether students are performing, presenting, creating, or collaborating, the skills developed through the arts transfer directly into leadership, communication, and future career readiness.
I believe every child deserves opportunities to discover their voice, develop their talents, and experience the joy of creative expression.
As a certified Set Teacher and Child Labor Coordinator (CLC), I provide educational services for student performers working in television, film, and professional theatre productions. My role requires balancing academic instruction, state compliance requirements, production schedules, family communication, and individualized learning plans to ensure students remain academically successful while pursuing professional performance opportunities.
I have supported students across elementary, middle, and high school grade levels while working on major television and theatre productions. This unique role combines instructional design, project management, academic coaching, and student advocacy in highly dynamic environments where flexibility, organization, and relationship-building are essential.
