This will be my 18 year teaching PE in Clovis Unified. I taught 8 years at Buchanan High School. I had the pleasure of teaching a couple sport classes, cross-age tutoring, and core 9/10 classes. This school year will be my 10th year at Alta Sierra. I coach the 7th Varsity girls and boys volleyball programs. I have loved teaching and being apart of PE. I enjoy making PE a fun environment, while teaching the skills and healthy life fitness options.
I have 3 beautiful daughters named Madison (11), Sidney (9) and Avery (8). Maybe sometime throughout the school year you will be able to see them or meet them. :) I am married to my husband Matt, going on 13 years. Since there are so many girls in the house, we made sure that we had some boy dogs to help. I have Victorian Bulldog- Buster and a Husky/Great Pyrenees- Hunter.
I am a Buchanan alumni, graduating in 2000. I was a four sport athlete while attending BHS. I played volleyball, basketball, soccer and ran track. From there I went on to Reedley Community College where I played basketball for 2 years before receiving a full ride scholarship for a Div. 2 school. I played for Metro State in Denver, Colorado. Loved being in Colorado for 5 years before I moved back home to obtain my teaching credential.
Fun Facts about me: I was named Buchanan Athlete of the Year (have my name on the wall) in 2000. My grandfather is Dr. Floyd Buchanan. He was named after the high school. My favorite shoe is Nike. :)
