I have taught at Prospect Valley the past fourteen years in 2nd grade, 3rd grade, and kindergarten. I taught in California for nine years before that in kindergarten and 1st grade. I love being a teacher! I have my Master's degree in Administration with an emphasis in Educational Technology, from Pepperdine University. What joy it is to help children to find a love of learning. Prospect Valley is a fabulous school where the staff, students, and parents work together to create the BEST possible educational environment for kids.
I have lived in Colorado for sixteen years. I am a wife and have been married to my husband Dale for twenty-six years. I am a mom to two adult daughters. Victoria lives in Texas, and Elizabeth who is graduating this May from the University of Northern Colorado, with a teaching degree. In my spare time I love to play with my dog Frisco, practice yoga, read, and garden.
I am looking forward to working together with the students and all parents to make a growth filled year! This is going to be awesome school year!!
