Meet the Teacher
I am a native San Diegan who wanted a little climate change for college, so I attended the University of Colorado at Boulder. After college, I came back to California and received my teaching credential from Cal State San Marcos.
I have loved teaching at Discovery Elementary since 2004. During my time at Discovery, I have been a reading intervention teacher, a first grade teacher, and a third grade teacher. I am active in our school district and have served on multiple committees. I have been an Essential Elements of Instruction Teacher Leader, helping my fellow teachers learn and implement new strategies to engage students in their learning. I have also enjoyed being a part of our district’s writing and math curriculum committees. In 2011, I was honored to be Discovery’s Teacher of the Year and selected as San Marcos Unified School District’s Teacher of the Year.
On November 1, 2013, my husband and I welcomed our daughter, Ashley. Then on February 27, 2016, we welcomed our son, Hudson. When we're not playing at the park or pool, my family and I enjoy traveling, winter ski vacations, Disneyland, reading, and playing with our dog, Penny.
