About me:

 

Hello Firebirds!  Welcome to the 2024-25 school year!  I am excited to be teaching Physical Education to your child/children again this year! 

This is my 13th year teaching at Gavilan Peak. I have taught 3rd grade for 1 year, and 4th grade for 11 years at Gavilan Peak.  I was a 4th grade teacher in Illinois for 10 years before moving to Arizona. I received my Bachelor of Education from Governor's State University in Illinois, and my Masters in Curriculum & Instruction from The University of Illinois. I have two children, Alexa (21) and Brayden (17).  My daughter attends ASU (Go Sun Devils!), and my son is a  at Sandra Day O'Connor High School.  We spend a lot of time at the ice rink watching my son's High School hockey games.  I love to spend my free time shopping, going to the lake, and going  to the movies.  

 

I am looking forward to getting to know your wonderful children, and to having a fantastic year full of Physical Education!
