I grew up in Simi Valley, California. I have two brothers and one sister. We lived close to the beach and spent many hours playing and camping there.
My dad was a fifth grade teacher, so having his summers free we spent our time traveling across the United States. We would camp at National Parks and had great times. My brothers and sister and I would collect newspapers, glass bottles and aluminum cans and recycle them to earn money for our trips.
I graduated from BYU with a double major in Special Education and Elementary Education. I have taught Special Education in Utah, Texas and Colorado.
I met my husband while we were both at BYU. He graduated with a degree in Accounting and we relocated to Texas. We lived there for 18 years before moving to Colorado three years ago.
We have been married for 24 years and have four sons. Our oldest is 20 and is studying to be a Paramedic/Firefighter. Our next son is a freshman at BYU. Our two youngest sons are a junior and freshman at Broomfield High School.
I love Colorado and am excited to be here at Superior Elementary.
