2010-2011 Residency Completing residency at Archuleta Elementary, 2nd Grade
I have been involved with education in various ways for since I graduated from Colorado State University. After teaching in Spain for a year, I returned to Colorado to serve in AmeriCorps with the “I Have a Dream Foundation” as a Tutor/Mentor.
I first heard about DTR at the Colorado State University Job Fair last fall. After looking at all the different options to become a certified teacher in Colorado, I decided that DTR was the program that gave the best preparation to be an quality teacher in DPS.
I am looking forward to working in a classroom for an entire academic year and partnering with a mentor teacher who can share so much knowledge with me. I am committed to closing the achievement gap as well as creating a classroom culture that is inclusive, engaging, and motivated by success.
