Who am I? A Short Biography
I have been learning math for a perfect number of years (28) and I have been a math teacher in Chicago for a prime (5) number of years. Currently, I teach math at Lindblom Math and Science Academy.
I grew up in Central New Jersey, came out to Chicago when I was 18 to go to college, at the University of Chicago I graduated with a B.S. degree in mathematics and economics from U of C in 2010, and finished a Masters in Teaching from the Urban Teacher Education Program (UTEP) at U of. C in 2011.

In addition to teaching at Lindblom, I am also involved in the broader math community in Chicago. I participate as a coach for Lindblom, test writer and grader for the City of Chicago Math League In addition, I teach sessions at Chicago Math Circles Feel free to contact me if you are interested in these programs; especially if your child is interested in extracurricular math!
I join the fantastic team of MSUrbanStem during the summer of 2016. More details on this journey to come!
I also enjoy playing ultimate, particularly during the less hectic summer months. Ultimate is a lot of fun to play, combining the best parts of soccer, basketball and football. Reach out to me if you want more info about the Lindblom Ultimate Frisbee Club
