I am super excited to be teaching 5th grade science. This will be my 20th year in public education. I graduated with a degree in Youth Leadership with the hopes of someday running youth camps all over the US. I am married , have 2 super cool daughters, and the most amazing dog anyone has ever known. I am a CaliTexan and feel most myself in Laguna Beach, California.. I started my teaching career in 5th grade then shortly moved up to high school level teaching Biology, Chemistry, IOC, Aquatic Science, and ran a Physics program called Principles of Technology. I returned to elementary level in January this year teaching 3rd grade and am thrilled to be back as part of the Fierce, Fab, Fun Fifth grade Family of SGP Dragons!
