About Me
I am a passionate Spanish teacher with 37 years of experience in education and counseling. Teaching and helping others has always been my calling, and I strive to create a supportive and engaging classroom environment. Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my family, working on crafts like crochet and painting, and surrounding myself with plants—both at home and in my classroom. I am the proud mother of four children, ages 16 to 28. Traveling and visiting the beach are some of my favorite activities, but I also appreciate cozy days relaxing on my couch with my husband.
