received her BA from UC Irvine. She obtained her multiple-subject
teaching credential from Point Loma Nazarene University, and her MA in
Multicultural Education from CSU Dominguez Hills.
She is delighted to be
supporting Occidental's student teachers. With fifteen years of
experience in public schools, her main goal is for student teachers to
incorporate a variety of strategies in their instruction, strategies
which should ensure equity in participation and access to the curriculum
for their own students.

students in enriching language arts expression and experiences to
Occidental's Community Literacy Center.
