I am the Physical Education and Health teacher. I was born and raised in Lynnwood, WA near Seattle and went to college at Whitworth University in Spokane, WA where I got my BA in Kinesiology and certifications in Special Education and health. I was married to my wonderful husband in 1999 and we moved to Lexington in 2003 due to him getting a job at IBM. We now have 3 amazing boys, Alexander (12), Aiden (9) and Austin (5). All of them love to play any sport, but especially soccer and basketball. I have a love for running, playing pickleball, and anything outdoors. My favorite activity is playing with my boys and doing things as a family.

In 2003, I was hired as a Special Education teacher at Southern Middle and spent several years in this position and then moved to Physical Education and Health at the same school. While there, I also coached basketball, track, and cross country. In 2015, I was hired at SCAPA and thoroughly love my job and the amazing staff, students, and families I am surrounded by daily. In 2016, I received the KAHPERD Secondary Physical Education Teacher of the Year and Distinguished Service Award.
