September 2015 marks the start of my seventh year with our Hazel Wolf community. I teach combined classes of sixth grade language arts and social studies, and eighth grade social studies, working in humanities disciplines wherever I can.

About me: I can generally be found chasing after my own two middle school children (or being chased.) When not occupied thusly, I am known to read, play games, make music, and occasionally jot words upon paper.

In the 20 plus years I have been a teacher in Seattle, I have taught many grade levels at a couple different schools. I have been at Hay since 2004 and I am teaching one of my favorite grades, fourth grade. I have a Masters in Curriculum and Instruction and a BA in Sociology-anthropology. I hold high expectations for all of my students and love to sing with my class as often as possible.
