4th Grade
My teaching career began in Aurora, Colorado where I spent 15 years teaching low income students, second language learners, and refugee students. This year will be my tenth year at Carson. I received my bachelor’s degree from Metro State and my masters degree from Mississippi State. I am also a certified yoga instructor and SEL facilitator through Breathe For Change.
In my free time you can find me spending time with my husband Derek and my silly, oversized dog Roo. I love to camp, hike, paddleboard, run (sometimes), do yoga, crochet, read, craft, and bake. I am also studying Norwegian and you can almost always find me listening to my favorite band; a-ha!!
