I have been the program coordinator in Wasp Online at JHS since 2011, however my career at JHS began in 2006 when I was hired as the Ednet Concurrent Enrollment Coordinator.  During the five years prior to working here, I served on the Juab High School parent committee, volunteered in various classrooms at Mona Elementary, and ran a small preschool while raising my two youngest children.  Prior to that time, I worked for a global corporation as the Americas Region Training and Development Manager where I was responsible for employee training and leadership development initiatives for locations in North America and South America, and also served on a corporate team responsible for worldwide initiatives. I also served for 10 years in a variety of capacities including Senior Human Resources Manager for the Utah and Idaho sites of Modus Media. Before that, I worked as a Brokerage Manager for Golden Rule Insurance Company in Fort Wayne, Indiana.

As a child, I grew up on a farm in Missouri with parents who taught me the value of hard work and dedication. I have also been privileged to live and work in Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio before coming to Provo, Utah in 1993 as a result of a promotion with R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company.  I married my husband, David, in 1995 and we moved from Provo to Mona in 1998.  We have 5 children and 5 grandchildren.  All of our children graduated from JHS -  our twin girls, Ashley and Sarah, in 2005, Josh in 2014, Aaron in 2017, and Valerie in 2021.

I enjoy spending time with my family, reading, and playing or watching sports as one of Juab's biggest fans!  I was fortunate enough to be able to play college basketball, and have spent countless hours coaching youth basketball teams over the years. I am always up for hoops game of Horse, 21, or Speed. I grew up Catholic, but am a Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints convert since 1995, and have served in a variety of church callings over the years.  I am currently serving as an ordinance worker in the Payson Utah LDS temple. 

In Wasp Online, I love helping all students learn and grow, and especially enjoy supporting them as they prepare to meet their career goals and to pursue their lifelong dreams.  I have worked with and for some amazing people over the years, and there are no better people in the world than our students and the faculty and staff here at JHS!  Go WASPS!!!!
