Bio:
 
I am the proud mother of three amazing boys and wife to a loving husband. We are native Midwesterners who escaped the brutal winters of Illinois and Michigan and came to California in 2012. As a family we love to travel, attend our sons' sporting events and visit our eldest son in college. We make frequent trips to the beach and enjoy our pets as well. This is my 23rd year in education and I have served in various roles including Senior Program Specialist, Moderate to Severe Special Education Teacher, Social Studies Teacher, Physical Education Teacher, Classroom aide and substitute teacher. I have worked in traditional, NPS and charter school settings. I am thankful for every opportunity that I have had.
