Bio: This is my tenth year teaching Math and Science at Laurin. I am an alumna of Prairie High School and was a member of the 1999 PHS Girls Basketball state championship team. (Go Falcons!) After high school, I played NCAA Division 1 Women’s Basketball at California State University, Northridge on a full athletic scholarship. While there, I completed a Bachelor of Arts degree in Biology. Upon returning to the NW, I decided to pursue a career in teaching and completed my Masters in Teaching degree at City University of Seattle, Vancouver. When I’m not teaching, I enjoy watching sports (Go Seahawks, Blazers, and Liverpool!), hanging with friends and family, fly fishing, live music, and Orangetheory workouts.

Bio: I have been teaching at Laurin since 2000; the first seven at 7th grade and 8th grade ever since. I teach algebra, 8th grade math and science. I earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Spanish from Pacific University, where I also played fastpitch softball and spent a semester in Ecuador as an exchange student. Several years after earning my BA, I decided to pursue a teaching career and earned my Masters in Teaching at City University. Outside of teaching, I enjoy spending time with my husband of 26 years, being a mom to a son (currently at University of Redlands & a 2020 grad of Prairie) and a daughter (a sophomore at Prairie). I also teach Zumba classes, enjoy working out, doing yard work and watching sports.
