Welcome to Kindergarten! I am so excited to be a part of your student's first time experiences in school. I consider it an honor to play such an important role in each of their lives. 

 I feel honored to work for Everett Public Schools. My career as a teacher started with an education at Cedarville University in Ohio. From there, I taught internationally for two years before moving back to the states. Upon my arrival home to the states, I moved across the country to Washington. I have loved teaching in WA state ever since. I love to sing, go on adventures outside, and spend time with my family and friends. 

 I am most excited for building a relationship with your student. Each student is filled with potential to grow in kindness as a friend, service as a member of our classroom family, and academics as a learner. I can hardly wait to get started!
