I am a 7th grade Science teacher and Student Council Sponsor at North Ridge Middle School. This is my 6th year teaching at North Ridge and I am so proud of being a Ridgerunner. I have 4 children Alexis, Layne, Chloe, and CJ. Prior to teaching middle school science, I worked as a preschool teacher working with mostly pre- kindergarten age children. I enjoyed teaching these little ones, however teaching middle school science had always been a passion of mine. So, I went back to school and received my teaching certificate from Millikin University. This fall I will graduate with a Master’s in Reading and Literacy from Grand Canyon University.
