Hello Ballard Community! I am thrilled to be a part of such dynamic, growing, and caring community of people. I obtained an MA in elementary education from Idaho State University and later earned an MA in religious education from SWBTS in Ft. Worth, TX. My experience includes teaching 5th through 9th grade Language Arts and Social Studies for 3 years. I also taught English as a Second Language to high school and college students for about 8 years. Most recently, I have recieved my endorsement in Special Education from Morningside College and am enjoying this new path in my career. After having the privilege of traveling to various different countries in the world, I currently reside in Huxley with my husband and three children, two dogs, one cat, and a fish.
