Hello all! I too am looking forward to working with everyone this summer. I am in my 3rd year of teaching. My first two years were in San Jose, and now I am in Pacifica teaching band at Terra Nova High School. I really love my job and actually look forward to seeing my students each day. That's probably good since I am still living in San Jose and making the hour commute each day.

I am looking forward to exploring new ways of integrating technology into my classroom. I have added a music theory class to my class load for next year and think that there are some exciting possibilities with technology in that class. I also think that further use of technology could greatly benefit my performing groups.

I'll leave you with a couple of pictures of my band. I look forward to meeting all of you in July!
