When she’s not corralling commas or grading essays with the precision of a literary ninja, this middle school language arts teacher is living life one season at a time—sipping tea in winter, planting sunflowers in spring, chasing sunsets in summer, and pumpkin-spicing everything in fall. A self-proclaimed Zumba enthusiast, she believes any problem can be solved with rhythm, laughter, and a well-placed semicolon. Teaching by day and twirling through life by night, she brings warmth, wit, and wordplay wherever she goes.
