I feel very blessed to be a part of New Hope. I graduated from New Hope in 2000. I have a Bachelor of Arts in Child and Family Study from Portland State University, with a specialization with at-risk youth. My husband, Jarrod, and I have three children – Noah, Addison, and Silas – and they all attend New Hope.

I started teaching at New Hope in 2017.  I have taught high school classes, was in charge of Student Government, taught elementary computers, and worked as the school registrar.  I am currently teaching 1st grade and completing my Masters in Education. I am so thankful for my opportunity to teach at New Hope, because I am able to develop relationships with the students.
