I began teaching at Swigert in 2019 and have grown to love the community that supports it! I enjoy teaching because children remind me to look at the world with wonder, as well as act responsibly on behalf of their future. I integrate music and the arts into my teaching to solidify concepts, spark creativity, and bring joy. When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my family riding bikes, making music and art, cooking, and getting out in nature.
