After graduating with a Masters in Teaching from Seattle University I began teaching 6th grade at Parkwood Elementary in the Shoreline School District. I have worked with young people as a theater director, Mad Scientist and gymnastics coach for over a decade. I am thrilled to start another year at Peter Kirk. A true Northwest native, I enjoy skiing in the winter and camping in the summer. I love soccer. Go SOUNDERS! My favorite pastimes include watching Barclays Premiere League, reading mystery novels, and drinking coffee in my Capitol Hill neighborhood.
