I grew up in Carbondale and graduated from Roaring Fork High School. After being surrounded by the Spanish-speaking population in the Roaring Fork Valley, I developed a passion for bilingual education. I teach both English and Spanish second language students. Since 2013, I have been a proud member of the AMS family and enjoy working with students of all grade levels. I am also very involved in the school's outdoor education program, leading various trips into the mountains, deserts and rivers of the American West.
