I grew up in a small Arizona town in the Southwestern United States. I moved to Texas to play college softball and pursue a degree in Education. Following graduation, I returned to my hometown in Arizona where I have taught 4th grade ever since. I have continued my passion for learning and recently earned a Master’s Degree in Curriculum and Instruction. I am Apple Distinguished Educator and enjoy implementing technology into my lessons. I am SO excited to bring my passion for learning to Swiss International Scientific School! I believe in teaching from the heart and being a positive leader to my students. Teaching brings me joy. My goal is to teach my students to celebrate their differences and discover their abilities. I enjoy travel, trying new foods, karaoke, and sports.
