I have lived in University Place since 1989. That is when I fell in love with the PNW.

My first job when I was 16 years old was at a foster care home with children with disabilities, that is when I knew I had a passion to teach. I have worked for Tacoma school district, Developmental Disabilities Division and an Assistant Living home.

Since January of 2015 I have been employed here at Montessori in Motion. My passion to help, guide and care for others has grown and I am looking forward to many more years to come!
