I am grateful for the time I spend with my husband and our two dogs. We love hiking, snowboarding, camping, going to concerts and being outdoors.
Personal Interest
There was a time when I thought having a college degree and teaching math was just a dream due to the expense and time. After more than a decade working in the restaurant industry during my late twenties, I decided to try college and was nervous that I would not be successful. Fortunately, starting at Front Range Community College with student loans was the best decision I ever made. It was a challenge to learn how to be a student all over again while working full time to support myself. Helping people learn and do any type of mathematics is my passion. I have now taught various mathematics courses for over a decade. I also enjoy coaching and mentoring other teachers.
