I am a full time student in my third year in the Elementary Education program. I am looking forward to starting student teaching in September of this year, and also finishing out my coursework for my degree and teaching license.  I love working with children and believe it is one of the most rewarding experiences that I can personally engage in. I believe it is the duty of us as educators to create a safe and comfortable atmosphere that promotes educational learning as well as play. I am so excited for my future with my career and with Kolby, and I know that there are great things in store for me.

Another interesting fact about me is I have a fiancé of over two years. He goes by the name of Kolby. We have been together since my freshman year of high school. I met him through my older brother at our high school in Klamath Falls, OR. Kolby currently works and lives in Klamath Falls. He bought a house the summer of 2006, so we will live there for a bit after we get married, and then probably move some where else away from Klamath for a change.
