I graduated from University of Southern California's Rossier School of Education with a MAT-TESOL (Master of Art in Teaching specializing in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) in December of 2018. This program honed my skills as an educator and gave me the experience of online learning and how to incorporate that into the classroom.
I am also a Colorado State University Alum graduating in 2016 and earned two bachelor's degrees; one in Art Education and another in Fiber Art. As a non-traditional graduate, my perspective on life and school comes from years of experience. I started as a music major many years ago at Phoenix Community College and decided to start a life with my new husband and put school on hold for a time. With renewed interest and ambition, I graduated as a teacher in the spring of 2016. My long term goal is to help at-risk youth. I have volunteered at Platte Valley Youth Services Center in Greeley as their Sewing and Quilting teacher. These students blew the ember of passion for teaching that had long been dormant. I realized, through them that my dream was not dead, just sleeping. I hope to be given a chance to continue teaching at-risk youth. They need teachers who believe in them and are willing to help each one believe in themselves.
