Working and supporting students is something that has always been a passion of mine; teaching truly feeds my soul.

In my spare time I enjoy reading and playing pickleball and I love to bake. I grew up in Oregon and prior to moving to Colorado lived in New Mexico, Texas, New Jersey, Wisconsin and Washington State.
