This year is my fourth year at Del Valle teaching history and geography. Before moving to El Paso I lived in New York City for many years, before that I grew up on a dairy farm in Wisconsin. I went to college at Hunter College in Manhattan and received my BA in Geography and Environmental and Energy Policy Studies. I taught middle school in Brooklyn for a few years before moving to El Paso which is where my husband is from. I live with my husband, Jason Palomo, who teaches English at Tejas School of Choice and our three dogs. Currently I teach World History and U.S. History. I am also the sponsor of GAEA the environmental club here at Del Valle.
