Biography

I came to Menlo in 1997 and have taught Physics I, AP Physics B and Astronomy. I also started coaching a school Science Bowl team in 2008.

I earned a BS in Physics and master’s degrees in Education and Astronomy from the University of Arizona. I taught public school in Arizona and California before moving to Hawaii in 1992; I then taught in independent schools in Honolulu for five years before returning to the Bay Area in 1997.

When I’m not teaching I enjoy gardening, cooking, knitting, music and spending time with my husband and our dog.
