Encino Park Elementary School is such a happy place to learn and grow, and I am blessed to be a part of it.  In my 15 years of teaching experience, my favorite thing about teaching is guiding my students as they expand their thinking and being there to witness their "aha" moments.  

I am a wife and a mom of three wonderful children. We have three energetic dogs who keep us smiling and entertained. As a family, we enjoy getting out to explore nature, cooking at home, and playing board games. I've also begun quilting in my free time and love getting to be creative. 

As a teacher, I promise to see the best in each child and to help my students to create and achieve goals. We will try new things and understand that making mistakes is a part of learning and growing. Our classroom will be a kind place to learn, with plenty of laughter and fun too!
