I have held the position of Preschool Director from 2006 -2010. I taught Kindergarten from 2010- 2021 in Buckeye, AZ I have been teaching 3rd grade in Payson since 2021, when we moved up here. I love watching students learn, grow, and succeed. I enjoy being part of the Payson community and try to stay involved in small town activities as well as school parades, talent shows and after school clubs. I believe kids keep you grounded and young, and a bit silly. My hobbies include hiking, kayaking, snowboarding, quilting and laughing with friends. Any time with family is treasured and enjoyed.
