I am a Senior Global Educator at Global Launch’s Intensive English Program. My current role is a teacher trainer, curriculum developer for both online and in-person classes, and instructor. I have also taught in several teacher training programs with teachers from Vietnam, Peru and China. Outside of the classroom, I have experience making connections with organizations at ASU and throughout Phoenix, interviewing/hiring/onboarding new staff, and coordinating professional development workshops. I have served as an English Language Specialist for the U.S. Department of State in a virtual capacity in 2021 (Pakistan), 2023 and 2024 (El Salvador).
I have over 30 years of classroom teaching experience in a variety of teaching settings. I earned my Master’s degree in Education with a concentration in ESL. I have a graduate certificate in Instructional Design. I also hold a Pre K- 12 teacher license in teaching ESL in Wisconsin. I am passionate about serving and collaborating with others to successfully achieve a common outcome. I thrive on new experiences and bringing first time value opportunites to others.
