I am beyond grateful to be at Ryan for my seventh year of teaching! I previously taught 5th grade at Coal Creek Elementary and prior to that, I taught 4th at Eldorado PK-8. I am originally from the outskirts of Salinas, California but have loved living in Colorado for the past 11 years. I graduated from the University of Colorado for my undergrad and I recently graduated from their Educational Foundations, Policy, and Practice masters program. In my free time, I love being outdoors, going to plays and museums, playing sports, painting, cooking, and playing board games with my friends and family. 

I'm looking forward to getting to know you and your child this year! 

This year, we are very lucky to be joined by the teacher candidate, Artis Paris. She will be in our classroom twice a week for the first semester and four times a week during the second semester. 

Please feel free to contact us with any questions, concerns, or celebrations.
