Welcome Students & Families!

I am excited to be your teacher this year! It is going to be a year filled with lots of new learning adventures.  I can't wait to get to know all about you, but first, here is a bit about me and my path to becoming a teacher...

  • I am a graduate of UC Santa Barbara. 

  • Following my undergraduate experience, I applied my BA in Business/Economics for a few years before returning to graduate school to attain my Teaching Credential and Masters Degree in Education.  

  • I student taught at the Del Mar Hills Academy.  After completing my student teaching, I was fortunate enough to be hired to teach Kindergarten at Torrey Hills from the first day it opened and since then have taught both first and second grades.  I also had the unique experience of teaching second grade virtually for the DMUSD Launch Program.

Life away from the Hawk's Nest

  • I grew up in Orange County as a child to 2 educators.  My mom taught kindergarten for 38 years and my dad was an educator at the collegiate level.

  • My husband Jason is a exercise enthusiast - and I do my best to keep up with him - in exercise and life!

  • I have 2 energetic boys - Kai and Tate.  They both love water polo, hanging out with friends, and being typical California boys! Teaching has helped me to be a better parent.  Parenting has helped me to be a better teacher! 

  • When I'm not teaching, I love spending time with my family and friends, going to the beach, staying active, and enjoying the amazing city we call home!

Educational  Philosophy

I love teaching children!  They have so much spirit and excitement for learning.  I set high expectations for ALL students! My goal is to inspire each child to be excited about learning, have empathy for others, take risks, practice a growth mindset, and learn from the process and the mistakes made along the way. 

Each child's education is very important to me, as I know it is to your family.  As we become partners in your child's life and education for this school year, I want to work as a team to make this a fantastic experience for your child!  Together, we can help your child develop a genuine love for learning and a strong educational foundation that supports the years to come!
