About Me

I graduated from Brigham Young University with a bachelor's degree in elementary education. I was interested in teaching because I recognized my deep love for learning and wanted to inspire others to develop that same passion. Before becoming a certified teacher, I was a volunteer tutor for school and community outreach programs such as Seeds of Success, Best Buddies, and Peer Assistance Leaders. I also went on a service mission where I taught a variety of people on a daily basis. These experiences helped me to relate to students individually and teach with their interests and personality in mind. In preparation to teach 5th and 1st grade, I was formally trained in current teaching strategies for all subjects. I received additional, focused training on Phonics, which made reading my favorite subject to teach. Besides being a proud wife and mother, I enjoy varied hobbies such as cooking, yoga, hiking, architectural design, and learning the Portuguese language.
