I was born and raised right here in Harney County.  I graduated from Western Oregon University with my teaching license.  I started my teaching career at Hines Middle School teaching Math.  I then transferred to Slater, to teach 3rd grade. Over the course of my teaching career, I have been a 3rd grade teacher, 5th grade teacher and a TOSA/ Behavior Specialist.   To further my education, I attended Grand Canyon University to obtain a Master's in Education and then I pursued my administrative degree at George Fox University.   I am a blessed mother of four boys.  We enjoy all outdoor activities and live life to the fullest!
