I am so excited to be welcoming you all to the 23-24 school year here at Meadow Hill Middle School. I will be serving as the new Principal and come with years of both Middle School and Administrative experience. I taught Middle School Science, Math, and Reading in Arizona and Nevada for a total of 12 years and have been a Dean, Assistant Principal, and now Principal at various levels since 2008.
I grew up in western Washington, a small town at the bottom of the Puget Sound, Gig Harbor. After growing up in the rain, I chose to go to the desert for college at the University of Arizona in Tucson, Arizona. I then got my Masters at Northern Arizona University while teaching. I moved to Las Vegas, Nevada thinking I would go to Law School and loved my job as a middle school teacher so much that I didn't pursue law. After teaching and serving as an Administrator in Las Vegas for 16 years, I made the move to Montana, where I served as an Assistant Principal at Hellgate High School for six years. I absolutely love being in Montana and am so excited to call it home!
Middle School is where my heart is and I am thrilled to be a Mustang!
