Seattle Public Schools

This is my 7th year at JAMS and 22st year teaching middle school. I’d rather spend time outdoors than inside, love all things water-related (swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding, beachcombing, storm chasing, sunset watching…), and have two dogs who mean the world to me. One of my goals as an ELA teacher is to grow every student’s confidence as a writer and help them recognize the power in their voice.
