\n\t\t\t\tI grew up in West Valley Utah and graduated from Weber State University in Elementary Education with a minor in physical education. I enjoy keeping the students physically fit and teaching them new games that they can play at recess or at home with friends. I enjoy working with kids and seeing them work together in teams or individually. I love seeing students try different things and realize they could do something they thought they couldn’t do in P.E. When I’m not at school I enjoy spending time with my husband and children, playing various sports, reading, dancing, hiking, and camping.\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n\t\t\t\tI was born and raised in Davis County. Since graduating high school I have lived in Southern Utah, California, Arizona, Illinois, and Kansas and have been back in Utah since 2013. I stayed home with my two kids for several years before going back to college to finish my degrees. I have a Bachelor and Master of Social Work degree from the University of Utah and was able to get my dream job as a school social worker with Granite School District. Before starting with Granite, I spent 5 years working with people experiencing homelessness in Salt Lake City. I love playing volleyball and paddleboarding in my free time.\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n\t\t\t\tI have been teaching music since 2008, with experience spanning Virginia, California, Oregon, and now Utah. Music has always been a central part of my life and sharing it with students continues to be a rewarding journey. Outside the classroom, I’m a proud mom of three amazing daughters and the devoted human to a sweet senior dog.\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n\t\t\t\tI was born in California and grew up in Park City. After I graduated from the University of Utah, I packed up and moved to Huntington Beach, California. There, I dabbled in public relations and business development in the insurance world and then transitioned to international business development in the telecommunications industry. After that, I started work at Hermosa Beach Elementary as a behavior aid and I loved it! So, for the next few years, I simultaneously worked on my Master of Science degree so I could work as a School Psychologist! I moved back to Utah in 2019 and started working for Granite School District. I love spending time with friends and family, crafts, shopping, kayaking, working with kids and camping!\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
