Welcome!

---

Welcome to my webpage! I am currently an EdD Student at Alverno College in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. My family is originally from the Philippines and Italy, and they came to the US in the 1960s and 1970s. My father served in the US Navy for 30 years, so I was lucky to have lived in several places, especially Japan from 1986 - 1996. I have lived, also, in San Diego, CA; Oberlin, OH; Las Vegas, NV; and Albuquerque, NM. I have also spent extended periods of time (at least a month) in Canada, New York, the Netherlands, and Germany. In 2023, I will be in Italy for 4 weeks and Germany for 4 weeks singing.

I entered the teaching field after working in corporate America, which was preceded by working at the Las Vegas Philharmonic, and 5 years in higher education administration where I served as Assistant Director of the UNLV Writing Center. 

Teaching is one of my passions, in addition to singing, and cooking.  All of my passions are also my professions. I am lucky and blessed to have been surrounded by great mentors who have guided me to where I am today - giving me the opportunity to do what I love every day.

I currently study what components of transformational leadership and social emotional learning could have a positive impact on teacher-student relationships.
