I am a graduate of Southern Utah University and received my Bachelor's Degree in English with an emphasis on education and have received a teaching license from the State of Utah. I have also earned a Reading and Technology Endorsement.
I am married to a wonderful man, Josh, and we have a beautiful daughter named Lexi. We also have two dogs (Pixie and Otto), both white labs, that keep us on our toes and active. We enjoy the great outdoors and jump at any chance to go camping, hiking, fishing, hunting, going on picnics, and more.
I also love to travel. I traveled to New Zealand, Spain, Ireland, and Scotland for study abroad trips and enjoyed every minute of it. I had the opportunity to take my own students abroad and open my classroom to involve real world experiences. Along with traveling to study new cultures, I also have traveled to present my writing at different conferences and gained perspective while talking with other teachers about how they teach in their own classroom.
I am excited about the new year and can't wait to get started on all the English learning that will be happening in my classroom.
