Introduction

Welcome to my SMHS homepage!
 
It is with great joy I have been teaching students the captivating world of chemistry since 2010, joining the SMHS team since 2018. If you are looking to contact me or have any additional questions that cannot be answered though his page, please feel free to reach me at [email protected] 
 
I hold Single Subject Teaching Credentials for both Chemistry and Family Consumer Sciences (Home Economics), and am currently the advisor for two campus clubs: Medical Youth of San Marino and Girl Up San Marino. I graduated from CUNY Queens College in New York City receiving a Bachelors of Arts degree in Chemistry and Masters of Science degree in Education. 
 
Fun Random Facts (as a science teacher):
My favorite molecule is water (H2O) and my favorite element is fluorine (F). Ask me why!

Congratulations to our Titans who took the 2026 AP Chemistry exam for their impressive results! Out of 73 students who took the exam, 100% earned passing scores with 84% of these students receiving 4s and 5s! The class average was 4.27 where the global average was 3.35. 
 
This is a testament of all your hard work and unending patience with me as I learned to navigate this last year with you. I am proud of each and every one of you and the outstanding result of your dedication. Thank you!
