I graduated from Western Washington University with a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education. I taught elementary school in the Everett School District for 2 years. Then I moved to Boise, Idaho and taught in the public schools there for 5 years. Then I returned to Washington and taught in private schools for 6 years. Since then I have taught 1 year of 3rd grade in the Edmonds School District and been a long-term sub in 5th grade in the Northshore School District. I recently finished my Masters in Reading program from Grand Canyon University. I am looking forward to teaching a small pod of students who are navigating the online learning from home.
