Utah Senate, District 8

Cottonwood Heights, Salt Lake Co

​My family and I have lived in Cottonwood Heights for 13 years. My son and daughter attend schools in Canyons School district. We enjoying going on road trips and visiting National Parks and historic sites across the country.

I have been employed by Granite School District for 15 years. My career began at Pleasant Green in Magna. I have taught 4th, 5th and 6th grade in a looping setting and multi-level classrooms. Currently I am an Educational Technology specialist at Robert Frost and Fox Hills elementary.

In 5th grade I was inspired by my teacher Mrs. Hahn. Her class was a place where struggling students like me felt like they could succeed. She helped me gain the academic confidence I needed. I aspire constantly to be an educator that empowers students to succeed.
