A bit about me...
I was born and raised in the beautiful pacific northwest in Kent, Washington. I attended Western Washington University in Bellingham, Washington where I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Spanish in 2002. My studies there included a study abroad experience in Segovia, Spain. I enjoyed a focus on Spanish linguistics and grammar. In 2004 I earned a Master of Arts in Teaching at University of Portland in Oregon. I taught middle school Spanish in West Linn, Oregon for 2 years before relocating to Arizona with my husband in January of 2008. In February of 2010 we welcomed our first child into the world, and February of 2012 we welcomed our second. I have been at CHS since we moved here in 2008. I enjoy activities where I have opportunities to be outside, travel, explore and hike. I also love to watch movies, tv, read books, listen to music, see live concerts, and most of all spend time with my husband and children. In December of 2018 I earned my National Board Certification which is my greatest career accomplishment thus far. Additionally, I was named the 2021 Arizona Teacher of the Year, an amazing honor.
