Experience

Primary teacher in beautiful Colorado! I have taught Kindergarten for three years and am currently in my second year of teaching 1st grade. I love my littles and finding fun, creative ways to create learning opportunities in a meaningful and engaging way.

Teaching style

I believe in a student-centered approach to instruction and learning where students can learn through self-discovery. I want students to take leadership and responsibility of their learning. I also believe strongly in a holistic approach to teaching and am passionate about culturally responsive teaching and focusing on the whole child. I believe every child should have the ability to achieve at high levels and receive opportunities for success.

Awards & shining teacher moments

I am most proud of the strong relationships I have built with students, families, and staff during the last five years of my career.
