About Me
Welcome to Second Grade!
I have been teaching since 2002, when I earned my Bachelor's Degree at New Mexico State University. Since then, I have earned my Master's Degree at Western State Colorado University as well as certification through the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards. I have taught in New Mexico, California, and Georgia, before finding my home in the mountains of Colorado where I love to spend time outdoors in nature with my family.
I have three sons and a daughter. I am a cat lover, an enjoyer of great books, and an avid runner. I love exploring new places and learning about their unique histories and flavors. If I'm not in the classroom, I prefer to be outside. My favorite activities include hiking, camping, trail running, stand-up paddle boarding, and skiing. I love being in the sunshine but will never turn down an opportunity to play in the rain.
​
I love the New England Patriots and make it a personal mission of mine to ensure all of my students leave my classroom at the end of the year cheering for the Patriots as well.

I am honored to have the opportunity to teach your child. I cherish the time I get to spend with my students and treasure the relationships we build together. If you ever have any questions or concerns, please don't be afraid to reach out to me.
​
Cheers!
