Department(s):
5th Grade
Born and raised in Texas, I lived there for 30 years before moving to Colorado 20 years ago. My teaching career spans 22 years with the last 17 at Carson, in which I have had the opportunity to enjoy the company of many wonderful fifth graders.
In my time as a teacher, I also developed a passion for educating through animal rescue and after volunteering with local shelters and metro area rescue organizations, I started Red Fern Animal Rescue. Our mission is to rescue dogs and cats from neglect/abandonment in south Texas and to relocate them to their “furever” homes in Colorado.
I have a “few” canine children on the homefront (all rescues of course)!
