PattersonElementary School

I earned my Bachelor of Music degree in Music Education at Lawrence University in Appleton Wisconsin. Prior to graduating, I completed my teaching internship at Roberto Clemente High School in inner-city Chicago where I taught band and steel band. I began teaching music in CUSD in 2005 and since then I have taught at Basha High School, Payne Junior High School, Chandler Traditional Junior High (now ACP Oakland), Patterson Elementary, Weinberg Elementary, Santan Elementary, Haley Elementary, CTA Freedom Elementary, and Humphrey Elementary. Subjects that I have taught include elementary band, junior high band, jazz band, AP music theory, general music, and steel band. I have been involved in the Chandler Academy for the Performing Arts (CAPA), and am currently in the process of earning my Masters in Curriculum and Instruction from the American College of Education.
