What makes me "A" Warrior? :
When I returned to teach here at my alma mater, it truly felt like I was returning home. I feel lucky everyday that I get to learn from and grow with my outstanding former teachers, and now greatest mentors and best friends. I can only hope to give back to my students a little of what this school community has given to me: a true sense of belonging, and a belief in themselves to rise to anything they set their minds to.

My wedding day in Buena Vista, CO!
Hi there! Welcome to my classroom, I'm so glad you stopped by! A little about myself:
I grew up here in Littleton, CO! I am proud to be one of the many alumni faculty members we have here at Arapahoe High School (Go Warriors!).
I received my Bachelor of Arts degree in 2012 from Colorado State University in Fort Collins (GO RAMS!), where I studied Art Education with a studio focus in Painting.
I have been teaching at Arapahoe since Fall 2013. This 2025 - 2026 school year will be my thirteenth year teaching at AHS, where I get to teach a wide variety of art media, including Digital Art & Design, Jewelry, Painting, and Watercolor.
Things I am involved with here at Arapahoe include...
Wild Warrior Women sponsor
ABK Soccer Game Manager
Former assistant Varsity Girls Swim Coach (2013 - 2024)
Former Student Council sponsor
I am married to my wonderful husband, who helps me live life to the fullest!
When I'm not in the classroom or coaching/sponsoring, these are a few of the things you can find me doing...
Visiting art museums
Reading (currently reading Wild Dark Shore by Charlotte McConaghy)
Getting out on the water for rafting and stand-up paddle boarding in the summer - we bought our own raft this past summer!
Skiing in the winter months
And collecting stamps on my passport!
The Alhambra Palace in Granada, Spain
Camping in Teton Valley, Idaho
Clay camp with Mrs. King in Wisconsin
Oh, The Places You'll Go!

If you ever want to talk travel, I'm your girl (I have been to 18 countries and counting)! The tags on the map note places that I've traveled to. My goal is to add at least one new tag to my map every year! Summer 2022 I spent 9 weeks in Spain and Portugal, exploring much of the Iberian Peninsula. It was an absolute dream! Where should I go next?
