Hello! I am a born and raised Northwesterner, having grown up in Mukilteo and earned degrees from Western Washington University and Seattle University. My educator career began at age 19 when I tutored middle school students in San Jose, CA, through the Americorps program. Since then, I have taught at a private school in Issaquah, taught English abroad in South Korea, and worked as a School Psychologist for the Tukwila School District and here on the island. I love being outdoors here and have summited the five tallest volcanoes in the state. I also love local music and am an avid Mariners and Seahawks fan. What I love most about being an educator is seeing how much kids can grow and learn in the right circumstances. You're welcome to call or email anytime with questions about support for your student.
