Bio:
Originally from Connecticut and a graduate of Bucknell University, Ms. Gold decided to relocate to Bethesda, Maryland because of its charm, wonderful offerings, and ideal location. While at Bucknell, Ms. Gold majored in English and minored in Education. She spent a semester abroad studying at the Advanced Studies in England program in Bath, England. During her semester oversees, Ms. Gold took classes at Oxford University and traveled to Prague, Venice, Florence, Rome, Vienna, and Spain. She is currently pursuing a Masters degree in Administration and Supervision from Johns Hopkins University.

With a passion for literature, writing, and people, teaching was the most fitting profession. She believes there is no other profession that is quite as rewarding and engaging as teaching. Ms. Gold considers it both a privilege and a pleasure to study literature and writing with her students at B-CC.

Being invited into the thriving and exciting community at B-CC has been a thrilling experience. Ms. Gold teaches in the IB Middle Years Program and looks forward to the many new discoveries both herself, and her students will experience in the classroom.

The one book Ms.Gold could not live without is Zora Neale Hurston’s Their Eyes Were Watching God. She finds Hurston’s lyrical writing simply too soothing and expressive to put down. On her spare time, she loves to travel to far away places, run, bike, write, and spend time with her incredible family and friends.
