I am absolutely thrilled to return to the classroom for my second  year at Lincoln Middle School, marking the exciting beginning of my 16th year in education. My passion for working with middle school students has been a driving force in my career, and I cannot wait to bring my enthusiasm and dedication to this incredible community. Middle schoolers are at such a pivotal stage in their lives, and I am truly excited to guide and support them as they navigate this transformative journey.

Outside of my professional life, I find immense joy in spending quality time outdoors with my 13-year-old daughter and our two lovable dogs. Whether we're exploring hiking trails, biking on many of the bike paths of Fort Collins, or simply taking the dogs on a walk, these moments of nature and family are where I recharge and find inspiration. It's in these simple, cherished moments that I discover the same sense of wonder and curiosity that I aim to foster in my students at Lincoln Middle School.
