I grew up in Page, Arizona.  I have a Jack Russell and a grey/white Tabby.  I love to play sports, read, spend time with my family and most of all teach with a passion for learning.  I was a Kindergarten teacher for 8 years.  I have been teaching 3^rd Grade for 8 years so far.  I have a B.S. in Education, M. Ed in Early Childhood, and M. Ed. in Educational Leadership with a Principal Emphasis.  I plan to continue my education with a Ph.D in Science for Elementary curriculum.  I also have endorsements in Early Childhood, Reading and Structured English Immersion.  I am eager to continue my endeavor to learn.

My favorite quote  "You are one person in the world, but to one person you may be their whole world."
