    About:
    I graduated from Perth Amboy High School in 2004 and earned a Bachelor of Arts in History and Marketing from Kean University in 2009. I currently serve as a Financial Literacy teacher at both the Main and South Campuses of Perth Amboy High School. With 14 years of teaching experience in the Perth Amboy School District, I am committed to preparing students with the financial knowledge, skills, and decision-making strategies essential for lifelong success.
