I am a Flathead Valley native who had the privilege to grow up in a rural school community similar to Cayuse. I gained a great appreciation for the smaller school setting and all it has to offer. My husband Cole, is the Fire Chief for the City of Whitefish. We have a son Owen, who will be an 8th grader and a daughter Olivia who is a 6th grader, and we are thrilled to be a part of the Cayuse family.

We enjoy hiking, camping, playing with our Huskies and generally spending time in the great outdoors. In those long winter months you can find us in the gym, as I will be coaching both the 7/8 boys and girls basketball teams here at Cayuse. This will be my 12th year coaching. I spent my first 7 years coaching in the local rural programs which included 5/6 boys and girls, 7/8 girls and a 7/8 girls travel team. The last 4 years I served as a freshman and sophomore girls coach at Glacier High School

My favorite part of teaching is connecting with the students and helping them become independent, resourceful young adults.
