I teach an academically-integrated, career-based program for high school sophomores at a technical center in Vermont. I have one group of students all day all year, which allows us to dig deeply and fully engage in projects and reprogram their systemized brains out of the habit of book work and tests, and into the habit of observation and reiteration. I try to engage students with understanding how their brains work, instruct them with empathy in mind, and teach them technology skills and how to be safe and responsible in our ever changing world.

Personally, outside of my classroom, I am passionate about food, gardening, and 'farm to table'. I love to make and create. I am a mother of 2, and that keeps me busy as well!
