I am a graduate of Lesley University and the University of Panama, a National Board Certified Teacher, and a highly qualified teacher as defined by South Carolina Department of Education.  I am a Spanish teacher at Irmo High School, and this year, I will serve students in the FIVE Virtual Academy.   

For over two decades, I have been helping students of diverse cultural background and nationalities learn to speak a second language, and I have experienced the teaching and learning process in Central America,  West Africa, and North America.  The 2020 - 2021 school year will bring me a new teaching experience, and I am thrilled with anticipation of what teaching in a virtual environment would be like for my students and I.
