I was born in Paris and I grew up in France. I moved to California in 1994 and live in Los Altos.  My husband is from India. We have two children: Sophie and Lucas, currently attending UC Berkeley.  I worked in the high-tech industry as a computer science engineer and product manager for many years.  I started teaching over 10 years ago as a music docent and a substitute music teacher. I went back to the university and completed my teaching credential in Music, French and Math in 2009. I have been teaching at Gunn High School in Palo Alto since 2010.  I am also Blended certified teacher and a Tech instructor for the district.
