I hold teaching credentials in multiple states in K-6 Elementary Teaching with endorsements in gifted and talented education and mathematics 6-8 grades. I also hold a Masters Degree in Education and Administrative Credential. My teaching career has been geared toward the empowerment of students of all grade levels. I have passion to educate young minds and help them blossom into well-educated, responsible, and successful individuals. Throughout my career, I have had wonderful opportunities to teach diverse groups of students, including those with learning disabilities, those who performed on grade level and those who are gifted. As a result, I have become proficient at designing creative and stimulating curriculum and lesson plans, which accommodate multiple learning styles, bring a hands-on approach, and keep students interested and focused.

I am currently enjoying being a stay-at-home mom of the last 2 of our 7 children and homeschooling them. We have a mini-homestead with lots of exciting things to learn and do. Some of my most influential time in education was spent as an Independent Study Teacher working with homeschool students and their families. I love meeting new people, learning new things, and helping students succeed!
