I have been in education for over 10 years. I taught elementary school in Provo prior to starting my Summit Academy Career at the Independence campus as a 7th/8th grade teacher. By  working at Summit Academy High School I have now interacted with students of all ages. High School students are by far my favorite. I enjoy  supporting the students with their individual needs in the classroom, and I love attending school performances and athletic events. 

My post high education started in California where I earned my associates degree at Orange Coast College. I then transferred to California State University where I earned a Bachelors of Arts. After some time I enrolled at Utah Valley University where I earned a Bachelors of Science in History Education, and most recently I earned a Masters of Arts in Special Education from Western Governors University.
