As an educator, I pride myself on creating safe and inclusive learning environments that affirm students’ identities. To best support my students, I am committed to a lifelong process of reflection and social action aimed at eliminating inequities in our educational systems. I place my students’ needs, well-being, and the unique gifts they bring to the classroom at the heart of my work.
