Born and raised in Tracy, CA.  My parents and family are originally from Spain.  I have traveled to and lived in Spain to get to know my family and immerse in the culture.  I have also traveled extensively throughout Europe.  I attended and graduated from Tracy High School.

I attended and graduated from the University of California, Davis with a double major in Spanish and International Relations.  I moved to San Francisco and worked in the private sector for a few years.  I worked for an Investing Banking Firm as a Research Analyst.  After this time, I decided to become a teacher.  I attended and graduated from National University with a Single Subject Credential for Spanish and CLAD Certified.  I started teaching at Gunderson High School in San Jose in 1996.  In 1998, I started teaching at Roseville High School and have been here ever since.  I teach Spanish 2, and 3.

I am married and have two children, a college freshman daughter attending UCLA and I have a high school junior son.

I LOVE MY JOB!  I appreciate it even more since my own children started middle school and high school.  In my spare time I enjoy reading, running, and traveling.
