PROFESSIONAL BIOGRAPHY
*BA in Elementary Education from Northern Arizona University 1995
*Masters of Arts in Education from Lesley University 2001
*Leadership Team
After graduating from Northern Arizona University, I got married, and my husband and I moved to Olympia, Washington. I got my first teaching job with North Thurston Public Schools district in 1996 and I have been here ever since. I have taught kindergarten, first, and second grade. My favorite is second grade!
When I am not teaching, I enjoy spending time with my family. My husband and I have two children. My son is eleven and my daughter is eight. We love to travel. Our favorite spot is Maui. I enjoy having a Hawaiian theme in my classroom which reminds me of our travels. At our house Friday night is movie night. We rent a good movie, pop some homemade popcorn, and snuggle up. I have also gotten into scrap-booking and card making in the last few years. My daughter enjoys making her own projects as I work on mine. I hope we continue to share that time as she grows. Lastly, I like to sit, relax, have a latte, and pick up a good book when I get the chance, which as many of you know when you have children that is not always easy.
