​WHY DO I TEACH?

 I am happiest, when I am teaching. Seriously. I don't pretend to understand it. Some things just are. When I am not teaching, I love being a mom to three amazing kids (ages: 16,12&11), a wife, a runner, a baker, mountain biker and skier.  

MY STORY
 I have lived in Colorado for 19 years, in the Vail Valley for 12 and now Snowmass! That being said, I grew up outside of Detroit, MI in Grosse Pointe. I earned my bachelor's at a small liberal arts college in Springfield Ohio, Wittenberg University. I avoided teaching altogether for years but fell head over heels with SPED when my 3rd baby went to kindergarten. Yep, that means I am in my mid-40's. I just completed my 2nd year of teaching as a Special Educator in a Moderate Needs programs at Eagle Valley Middle School in Eagle and have been teaching for 9 years.  I am also currently working on a Master's degree in Special Education with an endorsement in LearningDisabilities.
