Welcome to Pacific Sky

I am so excited to be a 5th grade teacher at Pacific Sky. I have been a member of the Del Mar Union School District family for 19 years and have loved every minute of it. I am so excited to start my 4th year at Pacific Sky and my 13th year with 5th graders!  I attended college in Missouri where I received my degrees in education as well as vocal and instrumental music. While in college, I also spent time training as an classical opera singer where I was selected to perform in many operas as well as singing my way through a tour in Europe. I also hold credentials in educational administration with additional training in Quantum Learning, EEI, and CGI Mathematics.

Because of my arts background, I truly believe that cross curricular education is important. I understand that all students learn in different ways. All students have different interests and subjects that make learning fun. Our classroom is full of diverse learning opportunities, student-led discussions, and the use of multiple modalities for successful learning. ALL students can be successful if given the right tools for their individualized learning. In 5th Grade, we strive to create lifelong learners.
