I am very excited to have the privilege of educating your child this year. I have been teaching 24 plus years. I have taught first grade, second grade, fourth grade and Middle School Family and Consumer Science (FCS). I was born and raised right here in the Treasure Valley. I went to school in Caldwell and graduated from Caldwell High School. I spent my first year of college at Washington State University on a full ride swimming scholarship and finished my degree at the University of Idaho in 1996 (Go Vandals!). My family and I reside in Middleton. I am married with one daughter Morganne, a graduate of Middleton High Schoool, currently a sophomore at the Univeristy of Idaho and a memeber of the Kappa Delta Sorority. I am a "furmom" to two wonderful doggies- one, a fun-loving Cairn Terrier (Toto) named Bear, and two, a beautiful black lab named Deke. In my free time I enjoy hiking, downhill skiing at Brundage Mountain, and spending time at my family cabin in McCall. I also enjoy golfing, traveling with my family, gardening and reading novels.
