I grew up in the beautiful foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountains in California. After leaving my hometown, I had the wonderful opportunity of experiencing life in a number of vibrant cities, including Portland, OR; Seattle, WA; Valparaiso, Chile; Santiago, Chile; and San Francisco, CA. When I moved to Sonoma County in 2013, I knew I had found the place I wanted to call home, and I am proud to be able to work with the residents of this incredible community as they pursue their personal, educational, and career goals.
I hold a B.A. in Hispanic Studies from Lewis & Clark College and a M.A. in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) and a Certificate in the Teaching of Composition from San Francisco State University. Before joining the academic faculty at Santa Rosa Junior College, I taught community-based ESL at the St. James ESL Program in Seattle, WA, Business English at Global English Advance in Santiago, Chile, and academic writing to multilingual speakers in the Composition for Multilingual Speakers program at San Francisco State University.
In my free time, I enjoy salsa dancing, working on my Spanish, spending quality time with my family and friends, and being active outdoors.
