After several years of teaching at the college and university levels, I started in the Palmdale School District as a 6th-grade teacher at Quail Valley Elementary School. I went on to become the Learning Support Teacher (LST) and the Administrative Intern at that site as well.  Currently, I am in my fifth year as a school site administrator.  Throughout my career in education, dance has also been an integral part of my life and I have shared the joy of that artistic expression with students by directing, choreographing, and teaching many dance programs and performances.
