Hi everyone! I was born in St. Paul, MN. When I was four years old my family moved to Coto de Caza, CA. For college I attended the University of Portland in Portland Oregon. At University of Portland, I majored in Psychology with a minor in Communications and I also ran track while there. After graduating from UP, I attended University of San Diego where I earned my teaching credentials in both Special Education and English and Masters in Education. In my free time I enjoy running, baking, going to the beach, and spending time with friends and family.
