I am excited to be teaching 9th and 10th-grade English in Missoula Online Academy. I have taught English for 19 years. I have also taught social studies and art at various points in my teaching career. I have an undergraduate degree in Government with a minor in African Studies. I have an MA in English Teaching from UM and am currently working on an M.Ed in Secondary Education. 

I love to travel, explore the outdoors, and have embraced various pandemic pursuits including lots of walking, baking sourdough bread, and adopting a puppy.
