Hi! I’m so excited to be your teacher this year! This is my 11th year teaching. This will be my 6th year teaching at LJM. I believe in fostering a nourishing and engaging learning environment where young learners feel safe to explore, learn, and express themselves. My love for teaching kindergarten comes from the joy of guiding children through their first educational experiences and watching their curiosity blossom. Each day is an opportunity to spark a love for learning and help shape a positive foundation for their future and personal success.
I received my BA Liberal Studies, Multi Subject Teaching Credential and my master's in education for Reading, Writing, Language at CSUSM.
When I’m not teaching you can find me spending time with my family traveling, snowboarding, going to the beach, hiking, or going to Disneyland. I love to read, especially during summertime.
