Biography

I am in my 15th+ year of teaching Mathematics and in my 5th+ year of teaching at Seattle Public Schools. Previously I taught in my home state of Michigan before moving to Seattle in 2011. I think Math education is important for all as it teaches us to problem solve and allows us to predict the future through modeling. When I'm not at Ballard High School I enjoy biking around the city of Seattle and hiking in the Cascades and the Olympics.
