Ada grew up in the East Bay and, after spending time in New York and Washington, D.C., returned to California to join Maybeck as a math teacher. She believes that math is a tool that can empower all of us to recognize patterns in our world, and she feels fortunate to nurture students’ curiosity and confidence every day in the classroom.
Outside of school, Ada can often be found on a soccer field, climbing a wall, or working out a math problem or logic puzzle with friends. She especially loves going on adventures near and far with her amazing dog, Tobin.
