Hi!  I am a second grade teacher at Thompson Ranch Elementary School.  This will be my sixth year teaching second grade at Thompson Ranch and my twelfth year as a teacher in Arizona.  I graduated from Arizona State University in 1999 with my bachelor's in education and have recently attained my master's degree at Grand Canyon University in educational technology!

I live in Surprise with my husband, Joe, our 15 year old daughter, Madison, and our eight year old boy named Connor.  We have a big furry white dog named Katy and a hyperactive dog named Sandy.  One of our favorite things to do as a family is to go on road trips to Flagstaff, Prescott and San Diego.
