This is my first year in Quail Valley MS and my first year teaching, and I feel truly privileged to join this great community. I am originally from Venezuela, where I was born and raised. After graduating from Law School in my country, I came to the United States to study an LLM at Cornell University, in upstate NY. However, shortly after, I left my profession aside to raise my family for a few years, during which I ended up involved in the educational atmosphere in different capacities. From these experiences, as well as my passion for the Language Arts, World Languages and specially for children and education, came my desire to become a teacher. The dream has now come true and I am excited to begin this year as part of the Q.
