ABOUT ME
I grew up in Tucson, Arizona and Wyoming, I earned a bachelor’s degree from Utah State University in Social Studies Composite Teaching. I have been teaching in Dysart since 2019. In my free time I like to bake tasty desserts, exercise, travel, and spend time with my family. Last year I adopted a dog named Leo. He always makes me smile and is a great hiking partner.
Enjoying nature is one of my favorite ways to relax. I love to hike, be on the water, and visit new places. My goal is to visit every National Park.

Glacier National Park
