After working as a dental assistant for several years, I returned to college and earned my Masters Degree in Elementary Education and Professional Certificate from the University of Washington.  I have been teaching for twelve years.  This year will be my 5th year at East Olympia Elementary and I am proud to be a part of this wonderful community.   My husband and I have four children. In my spare time, I enjoy hiking in the Olympic mountains, gardening, fishing, sports, kayaking, and reading.  I also enjoy sewing, technology, crafts and most of all TEACHING and LEARNING with my students.  

 

 The typical range for 5th grade is 770L to 1080L.
