I teach US History II, Civics/Economics, and Career Investigations to the 7th and 8th graders at my unique grades 1-8 public charter school in Prince William County. I also sponsor the National Junior Honor Society and coach the We the People competition team through VA Civics. In my spare time I’m a member of the VEA Instructional and Professional Development committee, a member of the iCivics Ed Network, and the moderator of We the People - a Civics/Government teacher facebook group of more than 3000 members and growing.
I am privileged to have been honored as the Virginia Middle School Teacher of the Year (2019) a national recipient of the American Civics Education Teacher Award (2020) and the VEA Teacher of the Year (2022). I am a passionate user and advocate for educational technology and am an Edulastic and Advanced Nearpod certified educator.
