I am excited to join the Cayuse Prairie community!

I am a native of the Flathead Valley being fortunate to grow up on the family farm. I attended Montana State Bozeman where I earned my teaching degree and have taught Special Education in the valley for 15+ years.

My husband and I have been grateful to raise our children in the same town that we grew up in.
I have 2 young adult children, Garrett who is following the family tradition as a plumber and
welder and Bethany who graduated from Montana State this spring with a degree in animal
science and management.

I enjoy being outside whether it be in the yard and garden, at the family cabin or taking a walk.
When I'm not outside I enjoy being inside sewing and crafting.

I am looking forward to working with students and embarking on the new adventures that await
in the 23-24 school year.
