I graduated from Maranatha Baptist University with a BS in Early Childhood Education in 1997.  I went on to teach  K4 and then K5 in a Christian School in Hawaii. I have been at New Hope since 2021. I started out substitute teaching as well as aiding in Kindergarten. I am so excited to be teaching Kindergarten again.  I love helping students explore and nurture their love of learning. I really want my students “to grow in wisdom, stature, and favor with God and man”. 

My husband, Doug and I have been married since 2000. We have 2 wonderful children, Jessie and William. We love going to the ocean.
