I graduated from Southern Utah University with my Bachelors in Family Life Human Development and worked in a school teaching social skills. I fell in love with being in the classroom and decided to go back to school to get my Masters in Elementary Education at Western Governors University. I am relatively new here at Hayden Peak but have already grown to love it so much and call it home. I love to travel, play sports, sing and do anything outdoors.

I have worked at Hayden Peak since 2013, but I have worked in the Jordan School District since 2008. Prior to working at the Jordan School District I began working for the Carbon County School District in 1988. My love of children is the reason I became a teacher. Some of my hobbies include camping, 4-wheeling, boating, driving my motorcycle, art and hanging out with my grandchildren and the dogs.

In 2000 I graduated from the University of Utah with a Bachelor’s Degree in Communications. I worked in Advertising until I became a Mom. I have three children. Two boys and one girl. My oldest son graduated in 2021 and my daughter will be graduating in 2023. My youngest son has a few years still. When my kids were all in school I decided to become a substitute. I have absolutely loved it and decided now that my kids are older I would become a teacher. I am loving being at Hayden Peak and look forward to teaching more classes.

When I am not teaching I enjoy hanging out with my family. I enjoy watching my boys play rugby and really all rugby. I love to sew, play the piano (I used to teach piano), craft, scrapbook, read, watch movies, gardening, camp and vacation! My favorite vacations are with my kids and husband.

I graduated from the University of South Florida in 1996 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education. I have taught 4th and 5th grades in Florida, New Mexico, and Indiana. I love to hike, cook, bake, garden and knit.  I have 2 married children and 1 perfect grandson! I am so thrilled to be part of the Hayden Peak community!
