I graduated from the University of Washington with my B.A. in English and my Teaching Certificate. I am also well on my way to completing my Masters in Education at UW, Bothell. I have known that I wanted to be an educator since the third grade, when I had an amazing teacher who made me want to be the same type of role model to children when I grew-up. In my spare time I enjoy hanging-out with friends and family, traveling, and scuba diving.
