"Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great."

About Me

I grew up in the Seattle area, but I have moved around a bit during my adult life. I earned my bachelor's degree from Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah and my Master's from Grand Canyon University in Phoenix, Arizona. I have taught in Utah, Washington, Georgia, Arizona, and in Idaho. I love to read. One of my favorite books is The Chosen by Chaim Potok. The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand is another I particularly enjoy. My husband and I have two children, ages 13 & 16. I can be reached by e-mail and before and after school by phone 208-237-1300.
