I grew up in an Air Force family and have lived in four states and visited 16 more.  One of my unique experiences as a child was participating in the famous White House Easter Egg roll on the South Lawn of the White House when my dad worked at the Pentagon.

As a teen, I was a care giver to my Down Syndrome and Autistic brother, as a young married I served as Activities Counselor in a care center for the elderly, for many years I was music director and chorister for children’s groups, and for twelve years I worked as a volunteer at Venture Academy Charter School as a field Work Crew Leader in planning and conducting meaningful field work. 

My education is from Weber High School, Brigham Young University-Idaho, and Western Governors University.  

I look forward to serving you and your students.

I view my role as teacher to be a stewardship with accountability.  I believe that the classroom should be a safe place to learn and grow.
