Teaching is a second career for me. After a few years in Corporate America, I knew it wasn’t for me, I needed that spark and to do something I loved. I loved children and knew I wanted to work with them, fostering their love of learning. I was fortunate enough to return to school, and in 2001, I graduated Arizona State University with a Bachelors in Elementary Education. I worked for the Madison School District teaching Kindergarten. In 2014 I began working on my Master’s Degree. In 2015, I received my Master’s in Early Childhood Education. I also hold endorsements in Structured English Immersion and Early Childhood Education.
