Hello and welcome to my homepage. I love being a teacher! This is my fifth year teaching at Valdez City Schools. My bachelors degree is K-8 education and my masters is in Special Education. I am married to my best friend; we have four awesome children. We love the Seattle Mariners and everything about baseball. We also love to be outdoors and enjoy all that Valdez has to offer. We ski/snowbaord, hike, paddle board, bike, fish, hunt, roller blade, kayak, rock climb...you name it and we love to do it. I love to read, workout and spend time with my family. Working with kids of all ages has always brought me great satisfaction. I look forward to another successful year with the students and staff at Valdez City Schools.
