Describe what you do at Spokane Garry Middle School and how long you’ve worked here.
This year I teach 7th grade ELA and the 7th grade AVID Elective. This is my sixth year teaching at Spokane Garry Middle School. In the past, I have taught Social Studies and have worked as an Interventionist.
How do you like to spend your time when you’re not at work?
When I am not at work, I spend a lot of time with my family (husband and two daughters). We love to do projects all around our house. Recently, I have been working on getting our garden ready to plant in the next few weeks. I also love to read. I have currently read eleven books this year, and my goal for the whole year is to read fifty.
What are some pets you’ve had or would like to own?
I have owned cats, dogs, fish, and a bearded dragon. My dog and bearded dragon were my all-time favorites. Bearded dragons are the best! Mine would chase my cats around the house and then crawl up my leg to my neck and hide behind my hair. Eventually, I would love to own another one.
What is one of your hidden talents?
When I was in high school, I used to be in the choir program. For most of high school, I traveled and competed in singing competitions across the state. At one point I considered becoming a choir teacher.
Where is the coolest place you’ve traveled to?
The coolest place that I have ever been to is the Oregon Coast. It is one of my favorite places. We vacation there every summer. I love Seaside and Newport, Oregon. The sunsets are so beautiful, and I love walking on the beach and hearing the roar of the ocean. The Oregon Coast has beautiful lighthouses as well. I love being able to sit on the porch and drink a cup of coffee while hearing the ocean and watching the sunrise and set.
