"Hi there! I am so excited to join Wyzant to provide tutoring and classes. As a young teacher, I knew the value of relationships and their impact on student success in school. My love of teaching and students drove me to craft engaging, empowering, and FUN lessons! This relentless quest to ensure that students, schools, and families could get what they needed led me to serve in every role, in every sector, over the span of my career and win awards while changing kids' lives.

I am a good fit for your family if:

-Your child learns best with relationship-oriented teachers who provide support based on their interests.

-Reading and writing gaps cause your child anxiety.

-Your child lacks confidence that they can succeed.

-Your child thrives when they have a voice and choice in their learning.

-Your child is motivated by having fun while they learn.

I earned my B.A. in Psychology from the University of Illinois and my M.S. in Reading K-12 from Nova Southeastern University. I am a former Disney American teacher nominee, Teacher of the Year, and the proud recipient of a Governor’s TOP 100 middle school award for the at-risk middle school Charter School that I founded and operated. I have teaching certifications in Colorado, Nevada, and Florida.

Outside of work, I love playing with my dog Brock, laughing with my son Jordan, going to Club Pilates, and finding ways to enjoy all of the activities Las Vegas has to offer." less...
