I am currently beginning my 21st year in education. I have taught science in the Adams 12 Five Star School District for a total of 18 years with the majority of those years being at Horizon High School. I have since embarked on a new journey and joined the HHS Counseling office in 2019. I am currently beginning my 3rd year as a School Counselor.
I earned my BA in Biology with an emphasis in Secondary Education from Metropolitan State University. I have also earned an MA in Educational Technology from the University of Colorado at Denver and have just completed a second Masters degree in School Counseling at Adams State University.
When I am not working you can find me engaging in my favorite activity, spending time with my family. I am married to my high school sweatheart and we have three grown children. We enjoy being active and explore the many amazing things this beautiful state of Colorado has to offer.
