Once upon a time...
I was a kindergartner, too! I grew up in Southern California (less than hour from Disneyland!), got my degree in Elementary Education from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and then followed my brother to Sacramento where I began my teaching career and met my husband in 2002. I've taught everything from Kindergarten through 6th grade self-contained and spent 10 years as a Reading Specialist. My daughter and I both started Kindergarten at Greenhills the same year. I've remained behind in Kinder as both my children have come through and moved on up. After all these years, I still absolutely love what I do! Kindergarten is the most magical grade to teach and I hope to help you make some magical memories to carry with you always.
Look below to learn a little bit more about me. I can't wait to continue learning about you as the year goes on.
This is me in Kindergarten.
This is me now.
This is my family.
This is my first day of Kindergarten!
I was a cat for Halloween. Meow!
