family migrated to New York during my early teens. I am proud to say that I am a product of NY CUNY system. I graduated from Queens College a long time ago, :) where I earned an undergraduate degree in Education and Spanish Literature. In the early 90’s I graduated form George Washington University with a Second Language Acquisition Degree. At about the same time I began my career with APS at Key Immersion Elementary School where I taught the Spanish targeted subjects. I also spent some time at Kenmore as an ESOL/HILT teacher and at Claremont Immersion as a math coach. Before coming to Hoffman Boston I spent four year in the department of instruction working as a Mathematics Specialist. I just recently completed a Master’s degree in Educational Leadership form George Mason University.
