I am blessed to be celebrating my 10th year teaching middle school science!  I am living my dream!  I have been married for 28 years to the love of my life, am the mother of four amazing children  Middle school students are in a season of transition and tremendous prefrontal cortex brain growth.  To partner with you in education during this critical period of development is an honor.  By background includes science, teaching, working in the medical field, social work, as well as proudly serving 8 years in the U.S.Army Reserve as a medic. I am also a war veteran of Operation Desert Storm.   I have taught at the high school level and have taught middle school since 2011. Where have I been? I am from San Diego, have lived in Monterey and now call the Treasure Valley home. This is a great place to be!  

 

I love the outdoors, hiking, ATVing, anything involving water and learning new things.  My favorite color is green (imagine that)!
