Hello!!! This is my 19th year teaching and 16 of those years have been at Willow Creek Elementary. I have taught 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th grade - I am so excited to return to 2nd grade- it is my absolute favorite!
Before becoming a teacher, I spent 14 years as a civil litigation paralegal and before working in a law I was a SCUBA Instructor in the Florida Keys. I am OBSESSED with tennis, SCUBA diving, skiing, and spending time in the mountains. I enjoy cheering on our Denver sport teams *(Broncos/Rockies/Nuggets). I have a Master’s Degree in Education and a Bachelor’s Degree in Political Science
At home, I have been married 34 years and I have two daughters (Allison and Jessie) — Allison received her BSN from the Mizzou School of Nursing and she lives in San Diego. Jessie graduated from the University of Colorado and is living and working in New York City. We also have one adorable dog, named Eddie.
We are going to have an excellent school year with lots of fun activities planned. Second grade will be a year for you to develop more independence, build upon your current knowledge and understanding, and strengthen your thinking skills.
