I grew up in San Diego before moving to the east coast for college where I received my bachelors degree in Social Work and Sociology. Following graduation, I moved to Nashville, TN where I completed the Teach for America program and completed my graduate degree in Education Instruction while teaching 6th and 7th Grade Social Studies and Science. I then moved back to San Diego and joined the HTHCV community as a 12th Grade Humanities Teacher. In 2020 I went to graduate school for clinical social work and have worked as a mental health therapist for three years before returning to the HTHCV community. I am thrilled to be back serving this community!
