This is my 34th year at Purple Sage, and it's like a second home to me! I love working with the children and families of our community. My goal is to provide a supportive classroom environment in which to guide each student in their learning, I will challenge your child to do their best and to set high expectations for themselves. I am experienced in knowing how children learn, and I continue to be a learner myself, by keeping current with new teaching techniques and the use of technology in the classroom. I have 3 daughters and 3 grandchildren. I enjoy reading, playing the piano, camping, and riding my bike.
