I am a St. Louis native who has lived in nearly every part of the city and county. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in anthropology and general science and completed my Master’s degree in special education in 2019. I am a first-year teacher excited to begin working in Ferguson/Florissant and help build an equitable and socially just community.
I enjoy creating artwork, cooking, playing music, and having outdoor adventures with my wife and our two dogs.

I love singing, dancing, yoga, cooking, and traveling. I am interested in opening my own business for homeless children.
