This is my first year at Garcia Middle School, marking my 11th year in the field of education.  I am excited to be joining this vibrant community as a Health and PE teacher, where I will focus on promoting students' overall health, wellness, and physical fitness.

In addition to my teaching role, I will be coaching volleyball, basketball, and track and field.  I am passionate about using sports to teach valuable life skills like teamwork, perseverance, and discipline.  My goal is to support students both on and off the field, helping them grow and achieve their potential.

As an educator and coach, I aim to create a positive and inclusive environment where students can thrive academically and athletically.  I'm dedicated to helping each student develop not just their skills, but also their confidence and character.
