I was born in Chambersburg, PA, the 2^nd of 5 children.  I went to Rick’s College for a year then later attended BYU where I received a Bachelor degree in Health Education.  While there I played racquetball for BYU and received 6 national titles, both individual and team. I finished college and went to work as a personal assistant for a well-known author and management consultant for 18 years.  In 2010 I began teaching at Provo High and later joined the UCAS team in 2012 teaching health education, driver’s education, and yearbook.  In 2018 I received my Master’s in Special Education from WGU and am currently the Special Education director at UCAS.  I love to hike, travel, garden, watch movies, play with my puppies, and eat good food.
