At which school in the district do you teach?
I teach at the high school!
What subject(s) do you teach?
I teach Chemistry
If you had gone into another profession, what would it be and why?
Research, but I decided to share my love for chemistry rather than keeping it for myself!
How long have you been teaching at SASD?
This is my first year teaching! I just graduated from Penn State in May 2024.
How and when did you know teaching was what you wanted to do?
My dad was a 5th grade teacher before he became a principal and I always helped him around his classroom when I was little. I loved grading worksheets and decorating bulletin boards. Ever since then I knew I wanted to follow in his footsteps and become a teacher!
What is something that most people may not know about you?
I work in the summer guiding people on rafts through whitewater! I have done this on the Youghiogheny River and the Lehigh River.
What makes you smile?
Coming home to my cat, Indie, everyday.
