I am so thankful to be a part of this amazing Stargate
community! So a little about me... first off, I am a proud mother of two incredible twin boys, who also
attend Stargate! I have been in education since 2008. I’ve worked for Denver
Public Schools, Adams 12 Five Star Schools as well as a Montessori school. I
received my bachelor's degree from the University of Northern Colorado majoring in Elementary
Education with an ESL endorsement for teaching second language learners. Also, I am
continuing my education at UNC in School Counseling. I have a passion for
mental health and teaching social-emotional skills. Working with kids every day brings me so much joy and is so fulfilling! I look forward to my first year here at Stargate, it will be a great one!
When I am not at school or doing homework, you can find me at home baking and trying new recipes, playing with our new puppy Rex, as well as reading or doing yoga. My boys and I love going to sporting events. Go Rockies! They play competitive baseball so I spend most my free time as a sports mom in the fall and spring time. We enjoy hiking, fishing, camping and watching new movies, especially Marvel movies!
What I Love about Teaching
What I love the most about teaching is watching my students grow both physically and academically throughout the year! I love connecting with my
students and families, and helping kids build a passion for becoming life-long
learners! Teaching keeps me young at heart and on my toes!
