Raised in Chandler, Arizona, I attended Scottsdale Community College before transferring to Northern Arizona University. I earned my Bachelor's of Art in 2010 and my Master's of Art in 2014. While pursuing my master's degree, I taught English 105 at Northern Arizona University where I learned how to mix creative writing with academic writing to strengthen students' voice and their technical writing simultaneously. Once I graduated, I worked at Arizona State University where I helped high school students apply to Arizona State University. In this role, I learned how to prepare and guide high school students for college.
At Imagine Prep, I encourage my English students to combine elements of creative writing with academic and professional writing. We develop the correct voice for the correct audience, analyze literature, identify themes and symbols, and practice Cambridge standards and testing.
