"A teacher takes a hand, opens a mind, and touches a heart"

 

I have been a teacher since I was five years old giving spelling tests to my grandparents from my blue podium in their living room! However, I have been a professional teacher for the last ten years. I have taught Kindergarten, First, and Fifth in those years and am over the moon to be in First Grade this 2025-2026 school year! I am married to my high school sweetheart and we have a beautiful baby girl, Violet. I love my family and my animals the most, but I also enjoy backpacking, finding local eateries, going to Disneyland/Legoland, adding new house plants to our home, and crafting of all kinds.
