Let me introduce myself...

I've taught 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th grade at the regular, honors and I.B. levels. I've also had the pleasure of teaching several fun electives, like English Conversation, Introduction to Blogging, and Fiction to Film. My work has taken me to both coasts of the United States and also abroad to teach at an American School in Bulgaria.

As a teacher-writer, I've published with Reading Today, Independent School Magazine, The English Journal, ReadWriteThink.org, and Classroom Notes Plus.

I'm interested in integrating new technologies into my classroom, ways to incorporate free choice reading in my curriculum (and outside it), and all things creative. The more my students forget there ever even was a box for them to think inside, the happier I am.
