I was born in California but have also spent years of my life in the country of Malawi, Oregon, Colorado and Minnesota. Growing up in a ministry minded family I have always had the strong desire to teach at a Christian school and share the word of God. ​​I went to various grade schools throughout my life as we moved around. I attended Martin Luther College and received two Bachelor degrees in Elementary Education and Secondary Social Studies. 

​​

In my free time I enjoy painting, writing, outdoor activities and spending time with my two cats. I love to find joy and laughter in the mundane. God has provided endless blessings, there is always something to be thankful for. 

​​

My time at East Fork has been an incredible blessing and rewarding in countless ways. It has been a complete joy to live and teach here. It is a special privilege to serve the families of East Fork and the White Mountain Apache Tribe.
