I am a San Diego native, originally from the community of San Ysidro. For the past four years, I have taught World History, a subject I value for its ability to illuminate the transformations of societies and civilizations over time. The study of history provides essential perspectives for understanding contemporary issues and anticipating future challenges, which I strive to instill in my students. My professional and personal experiences, including time spent living in California’s Central Valley, have further shaped my outlook as an educator. I am committed to fostering academic growth and supporting students as they pursue success in their chosen endeavors.
