I am so happy to be starting my second year at Hillcrest Middle School!

I have my degree in child psychology from the University of Minnesota and a teaching certificate from Grand Canyon University.  I am certified in Secondary ELA (grades 6-12).  Between teaching and working as a special education paraprofessional, I have five years of experience in education.

I am originally from Minnesota, but I have lived in nine states, including Arizona!

My hobbies are reading, playing piano, singing, and ballet.

My favorite book of all time is Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern, and my favorite author is Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.
