Welcome to First Grade!

I am looking forward to working with you this year to help your children achieve and grow!

If you are not able to find what you need, feel free to contact me and I will do my best to help you.

A Little Bit About Me

I was born and raised in Southern California. My fiance, Payden, and I moved to Colorado Springs last summer. We are cat parents to our beloved orange tabby named Donny. I am a Diet Coke enthusiast and love anything with chocolate in it. In my free time, I love to go hiking and kayaking.

I earned my Bachelor's degree in Art History at the University of California, Santa Cruz and my Master's degree in Educational Leadership at California Lutheran University. This will be my first year teaching at Skyway Elementary. I have taught 1st and 2nd grade in previous years. It is such a joy teaching primary students and seeing their tremendous growth throughout the year!
