I earned my degree in Secondary Mathematics Education from Mount Vernon Nazarene University, graduating cum laude with a 3.685 GPA as an Honors Scholar. I scored 260 on the Ohio Assessment for Educators Mathematics examination and earned a composite ACT score of 33. My education gave me a strong foundation in mathematics, instructional strategies, curriculum development, and supporting students with diverse academic needs.
I am a full-time high school mathematics teacher at Bishop Rosecrans High School, where I teach Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Statistics, Precalculus, and Financial Literacy. I work with students in grades 9–12, developing lessons, assessing progress, and providing individualized support. My teaching emphasizes step-by-step explanations, visual representations, guided practice, and adapting instruction to students' needs. I help students understand why mathematical procedures work rather than simply memorizing formulas.
Before becoming a full-time teacher, I student-taught at Knox County Career Center, teaching Algebra 2 and Financial Literacy. I also gained classroom experience at Utica High School, Highland High School, and Mount Vernon Middle School, working with students in grades 7–12 across various mathematics subjects. These experiences strengthened my ability to identify misconceptions, differentiate instruction, and build mathematical confidence.
My greatest strength is my genuine passion for helping students succeed. I believe every student can grow in mathematics with the right support and encouragement. I value working with students individually, adapting to their needs, and helping them build understanding and confidence.
