Raised right here in our Eel River Valley, I knew at a young age I wanted to teach, help, and inspire. That knowledge led me on an amazing journey after graduating from Ferndale High School and through college at Concordia University in Portland, Oregon. It resonated with me in the various places I have lived: Oregon, Nevada, Texas, and California–taking time to be mom for my two remarkable children; raising them to enjoy and appreciate people from all walks of life. My love for education blazed bright as I taught various grade levels: a year of 3rd (and a Spanish elective for grades 1-4), a year of 1st (reading 1-3, a music elective for grades 1-4, plus 8th grade drama), four years as the 3-year-old lead teacher in a preschool, a year in 4th, a year in a 5th/6th combination class, and a year as the Educational Specialist for the Intensive Support Class here at Loleta Elementary.  I am overjoyed to be the second grade teacher at our school and look forward to an amazing year of learning together.
