I've just arrived at Discovery from Austin, Texas, where I was completing my graduate degree in Curriculum and Instruction at UT (Hook 'Em)! Previously, I taught ESL and social studies in Texas and Sao Paulo, Brazil. This will be my ninth year as an educator and I am amazed at how much time flies when you're doing what you love. I'm already enjoying the Year 10 Humanities students and look forward to helping them prepare for university studies. Outside of academics, I love cycling, hiking, Portuguese, and of course, my puppy Tolstoy.
