Hello! This is my second year teaching at Springs Ranch, but my eighth year teaching. Originally, I am from Oregon, but I have lived in Colorado for the past 11 years (with a three-year break in Washington D.C.). I have a Master’s degree in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages from University of Colorado, Colorado Springs. My 3-year-old daughter keeps me busy outside of school. I love to run, hike and do puzzles.
