When I say I have been in education for twenty-four years, it is hard to believe! Each year I love watching your children grow as readers, writers, mathematicians, scientists, and thinkers. I previously taught first, third, and fourth grades. I also owned and operated a Sylvan Learning Center for eleven years. I have been at Thrive Home School Academy for five years and feel like this truly is my home. When I am not at school, you will find me spending time with my family, running, or riding my mountain bike.
