Aftercare Staff
I have taught in both public and alternative education settings, including serving as a public middle school teacher, an art teacher at Seven Directions, and the director of an afterschool program for the City of Scotts Valley. For the past two years, she has been a substitute teacher in the preschool, summer, and aftercare programs at Santa Cruz Waldorf School.
I homeschooled her daughter, now 19, who spends much of her time at Coast Road Stables, where she works closely with horses and her barn community. My teaching is grounded in respect for the whole child, a deep connection to the natural world, and a commitment to fostering curiosity, creativity, and kindness.
