I began my teaching career at Monrovia Middle School in January of 2006. I had the opportunity to move to Madison City Schools in August of 2006. I taught inclusion language arts at Discovery Middle School from August 2006 until August 2010. I moved to Bob Jones High School in August 2010. During my time at Bob Jones, I taught academic strategies, reading skills lab, English 9, English 10, Pre-AP English 9, Freshman Comp, AP 11 Language & Composition, Pre-AP English 10, and Honors English 11. Fall of 2019, I am teaching Pre-AP English 10 and AP Language & Composition.  Spring of 2020, I will teach Pre-AP English 10.

I am quirky and retro. I love the movies, TV, and music from my youth. I enjoy watching my husband (Billy Bargetzi) play trombone in various shows and with various groups.
