I have 3 daughters, 4 gorgeous grandchildren, with one on the way, due in November. I graduated from BYU, with a degree in Early Childhood Education, so blue, cougar blood runs through my veins! I have a master’s degree in Curriculum and Instruction from Chapman University in Orange, California. I have teaching endorsements in Gifted and Talented Learners, English Language Learners, as well as a National Board Certification. I am thrilled to be at Oakwood.
