Hometown:
I grew up in Trinidad, Colorado.
Professional Background/Education/Experience:
I graduated from Colorado College with a B.A. degree in Sociology and a M.A. degree in Education. I taught for three years in Colorado Springs before moving to Fort Collins with my husband. For the past thirteen years, I have been teaching in Poudre School District. Six of these years were at Rice Elementary, the rest have been here at Beattie Elementary. I have always been a primary teacher and have taught kindergarten, first, and second grade.
What I love about working at Beattie:
It is such a pleasure working at Beattie. Our staff cares deeply about each and every child. We are committed to helping every student achieve success socially, emotionally, and academically. Beattie has a very strong community that I'm so proud to be a part of!
Personal Interests/Hobbies:
When I am not teaching, I am usually spending time with my husband and two children. I enjoy reading, watching movies, cooking/baking, walking our dog Piper, practicing yoga, and most importantly, having fun with my family!
