Hi! I have been a part of Common Threads since 2010, I spent the first 2 volunteering with Common Threads and have been on staff ever since. Prior to joining Common Threads I was a middle school math teacher and also hold a culinary arts degree. I love cooking and my passion is to empower students to cook healthy meals at home. As the Curriculum Manager, I write and manage our curriculum, training, and develop partnerships, but the best part of my job is teaching the classes!
We teach underserved children to cook wholesome & affordable meals, because, through our cooking classes, we can help prevent childhood obesity and reverse the trend of generations of non-cookers, while celebrating our cultural differences.
