I was a doctoral student in the field of ESL/Bilingual Special Education. Previously, I was a bilingual special education teacher in ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥â€™s public school system and Denver Health’s Hospital Psych Adolescent Department. My research interests are in the areas of Literacy, Positive Behavior Supports, and Culturally Responsive Teaching. I continue to use this research in helping to address the disproportionate representation of culturally and linguistically diverse students in special education.
