I am a graduate of Meridian High School and attended the College of Idaho where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Applied Voice and minored in education. I’ve been a choir director for over 16 years. Of those years, 12 of them have been spent in the Vallivue School District. I've retired as Secretary for the Idaho Chapter of ACDA, as well as past chair and co-founder of the Idaho All State Vocal Jazz Ensemble. I am currently the Idaho ACDA Women's Choir R&R Chair. I’ve been married to my husband Rob for almost 18 years and have two energetic and inquisitive children. When I’m not teaching I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, as well as singing jazz, camping, watching movies, or doing a Crossfit WOD.
