Teaching style
I like weaving technology into our lessons whenever I can because it keeps my kids engaged and makes learning feel fun and interactive. I also love group work — whether it’s students in a classroom or my own kids at the kitchen table — because there’s so much value in learning from each other. At the end of the day, I want lessons that are hands-on, adaptable, and practical for real life, not just something that looks good on paper.
My own education history
I have a bachelor of science degree in elementary education and a master's degree in Applied Technology in Education.
Additional biographical information
I’ve taught everything from 2nd to 7th grade and loved middle school science, but homeschooling has my heart — it’s where I get to follow my kids’ interests, spark real curiosity, and teach on my own terms. I’m a hands-on, crafty kind of mom — sewing, scrapbooking, making jewelry — and I bring that same creativity into my teaching. Living a toxin-free lifestyle isn’t just a choice; it’s a non-negotiable for our home and how I design my resources. I believe in being intentional, cutting out the unnecessary, and choosing tools and lessons that actually make life healthier, simpler, and more vibrant.
