Welcome to my class! I started teaching in the fall of 1990. I taught band, choir, and general music for most of those years, along with keyboarding, reading, and math courses when needed. It's exciting to be teaching ELA seminar courses! Through the years, I have taught so many amazing students. Today, as I look at my class rosters, I see that I have students who are children of former students! This is even more exciting! 

I am married to a great guy, and I am the mom of four amazing people. I would say kids, but they are all grown now.  We are animal lovers. We currently have two dogs and one cat. Family is very important to me. I love family adventures, going to a Seahawks or Mariners game occasionally, going to movies, and dinners with family and friends. I love music of all types, and I enjoy baking and reading, too. 

I have always considered it a privilege to the fine students in the Okanogan School District. We have amazing students! I am looking forward to a great school year. Go Dawgs!
