Hello Hazel Wolf K-8 Families!

This will be my 16th year teaching-WOW! I spent my first year substitute teaching all over the district and the last 14 years teaching kindergarten here at Hazel Wolf K-8. I went to the University of Washington for both my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees (GO DAWGS) and have lived in the Seattle area for the past 21 years.  I've lived in seven states across the U.S. but love it here in the Pacific Northwest! I love spending time with my husband Raymond and our two dogs, two cats, and tons of fish-AKA “The Wheeler Zoo!” We are also huge Seahawks fans-GO HAWKS.

I am thrilled to be a member of the kindergarten team. I’ve been teaching at Hazel Wolf since 2014 and have taught 5th grade, and 1st grade in past. However, I’ve found my home in kindergarten for many years now. It is a joy to be a part of this community! I look forward to a fun year together.

Personal Message

September 2015 marks the start of my seventh year with our Hazel Wolf community. I teach combined classes of sixth grade language arts and social studies, and eighth grade social studies, working in humanities disciplines wherever I can.

About me: I can generally be found chasing after my own two middle school children (or being chased.) When not occupied thusly, I am known to read, play games, make music, and occasionally jot words upon paper.
