I was born and raised in Spokane, Washington and have been in education for 24 years.  I have taught elementary education in Washington, Idaho, and Texas, with a focus on behavior intervention and instructional strategies.  In 2014, I became a math academic lead teacher for K-5 teachers in a large Houston school district.  Lucky for us, In 2016, my husband and I moved to Colorado Springs. I am the Instructional Coach here at Skyview, and I absolutely love working with and learning from all the amazing teachers here!  

Our two sons, Rykley (24) and Brayley (21), both still live in Texas, but they love visiting us here in Colorado. When I'm not working, I spend time running, skiing, hiking, camping, doing yoga, cheering on our Gonzaga Basketball team and exploring Colorado with my husband and our three amazing dogs.
