I am a dedicated and passionate educator with a Bachelor of Science in Biology and a Minor in Chemistry from Salem State University (Class of 2023). Currently, I serve as a 7th Grade Science Teacher at Collins Middle School in Salem, MA, where I deliver dynamic, student-centered instruction aligned with state standards. My teaching philosophy is grounded in high expectations, differentiated learning strategies, and data-driven instruction to support all learners—especially multilingual students.
Previously, I served as a United Way AmeriCorps Fellow through LEAP for Education, where I supported afterschool programming, mentored middle school students, and helped coordinate daily operations for the Expanding Horizons program. I am especially committed to fostering social-emotional growth and academic success among middle school learners.
With a strong foundation in science, hands-on classroom experience, and a deep belief in equitable education, I strive to create inclusive, engaging learning environments that support every student’s potential.
