MY WHY

Hi! I am so excited to be joining Cascade Elementary School this year! While this is my first year teaching, I have known for years that Cascade is where I wanted to be. I have a passion for education and I am thrilled to meet your students and teach them all about the wonderful opportunities that education offers. Coming from a small town myself, I look forward to giving back to students and a community much like the one I grew up in.

MY BACKGROUND

I grew up in Horseshoe Bend, ID just south of Cascade. I attended school there all the way from Pre-K to 12th grade. After graduation I went on to complete my BA in Elementary Education with a Literacy endorsement at Boise State University (Go Broncos!). During my time there I was given the opportunity to complete my student teaching at Grace Jordan Elementary in Boise. Here I gained an abundance of experience in learning different strategies for differentiation, creating effective and meaningful lesson plans, and teaching to students with diverse needs and skills.

MY INTERESTS

Things I love include my family, my friends, and my two super naughty puppies, Winston and Jada. Those that I love are very important to me so I spend most of my time with them. If I have some time outside of spending time with my loved ones, I also love playing/coaching volleyball, doing photography, and traveling around the United States. Some of my favorite places are Jackson, Wyoming, Dallas, Texas, and Washington D.C. All three places are very different, but offer one of a kind experiences. Jackson is beautiful everywhere you look (perfect for my photography). Dallas is loud and always has something going on; which I love because I love to be busy. And Washington D.C. has so much culture, history, and the best restaurants I've ever been to. My goal is to see all 50 states in my lifetime and travel to at least five other countries.
