My Why

My love for school and learning began in Kindergarten thanks to the influence of my teacher, and I have known since then that I wanted to to be a teacher and hopefully have the same impact on my students. I believe that every student is capable of learning and achieving success. It is my passion to help my students find the confidence in themselves and the motivation to achieve. My purpose is to make all of my students feel important, capable, and motivated to be ongoing learners. 

My Background

I was born and raised in Boise, and attended school in the West Ada School district through all of my schooling. I graduated from Boise State University with my degree in Elementary Education and a Literacy endorsement. I have been teaching at Summerwind since 2019. I absolutely love being a part of the Summerwind community!

My Interests

My husband and I keep busy working on house projects, going for walks, watching movies, and loving on our sweet cats, Cuda and Cove. I enjoy expressing my creativity through makeup, fashion, and home decorating.
