I was born and raised in Dallas, Texas and am a proud Texan! I graduated from Texas Tech University in 2001, and I started teaching full time in fall of 2002! I spent my first 3 years teaching 4th grade in Plano, Texas before moving to Colorado in 2005. I spent 16 years teaching 3rd grade and then moved up to 5th grade where I have taught Science+Social Studies for the past 5 years. I love 5th grade! I was teaching in Highlands Ranch for all of those years, and I'm happy to be an IHE Engineer for my 2nd year! I'll be teaching Science + Social Studies this school year.
My family is the thing I cherish the most!! My husband and I have been married for almost 9 years now. We are a blended family, and we have 4 kids between us! I enjoy time with our family, sports, being outside, swimming, concerts, and cooking!
I'm looking forward to a great school year with students!
