I have been in the classroom most of my life. I strive to be a lifelong learner both inside and outside the classroom. I am honored to be part of the Albuquerque Academy community.

This is my fourth year at AA. From 2001-1007, I taught at CNM and UNM. I have instructed various math classes, physical geography, astronomy, and physics. Even though my graduate work is in the field of physics, specifically optics, I have enjoyed teaching courses outside this field.

I am very fortunate to have a loving family, a husband, two boys, several creatures of the feline persuasion, a very lovable dog, and four chickens.

I enjoy hiking, biking , gardening, and any other opportunity to enjoy mother nature. I bike to work as often as possible.

I have passionate interests in the field of renewable energy, permaculture, and all forms of sustainability.
