Hello! I am a fourth grade teacher here at Alpine Elementary. I am a Colorado native who was born, raised, and still lives in Fort Collins.  Though I have traveled to many countries, including Uganda, Rwanda, England, France, Germany, Taiwan, China, and more, I can’t imagine living in a more incredible place than along the foothills of Colorado. I have had several careers prior to becoming a teacher including painter, restaurant management, lift operator, and assembly line manager.  I have also published several works of poetry and short stories in various magazines and compilations. I have been married for 25 years, and have two daughters and two grandsons.  Aside from 4th grade, I have taught 3rd, 5th, and most recently 2nd grade here at Alpine. I am extremely excited to begin the year, and look forward to the unique curriculum your child and I will be venturing through!
