I am a teacher-scholar of anthropology and education. After several years of practical PK-12 classroom experience and three years of higher education teaching, I am currently seeking a position where I could combine my knowledge of education and the social sciences in an impactful way. I live in New York City with my Italian family and our two Siamese cats, Baby and Sun.
