This is my third year at East, and my eighth year of teaching.  I will be teaching 7th grade Social Studies. I previously taught in Charlotte-Mecklenburg, Gaston County, and the public schools of Boston and New York City.  Even though I am originally from North Carolina, I went to the City University of New York for a B.A. Economics, and to UMASS Boston for a M.A. in History. I previously worked in investment management for nearly a decade involved in trading, asset management, and financial planning.     

Welcome to a new school year! 

 ----- Updates to my teacher website are pending. All class content and materials this year will be available through Google Classroom and linked to Canvas -----

More to follow regarding digital learning: All updates and assignments will be shared on Google Classroom and lesson videos recorded with Screencastify.  Remember that Google Classroom and email are your “hubs” for communication with me. Please check these daily as I will keep new information updated as much as possible through these channels. Most of your assignments outside of the classroom will be through Screencastify lessons and discussions on Google Classroom. The log-in and meeting information for these meetings will be communicated through Google Classroom or email.
