I have taught all grade levels from 7-12 in Social Studies and currently teach at the Science Leadership Academy in Philadelphia, an inquiry-driven, project-based high school focused on modern learning.

Before finding my way to Philadelphia, I was an active member of the teaching community in Flagstaff, AZ where I was named Technology Teacher of the Year for Arizona and a member of the Governor's Master Teacher Corps.
