About The Teacher
I am so happy to be teaching fourth grade at Plaza Vista! I love working with children and I have enjoyed teaching both third and fourth grade. There is always something new to learn and that's what makes teaching so much fun! On a personal note, I have a degree in psychology from the University of California at Santa Barbara. I received my teaching credential from California State University at Fullerton, and l2 years ago, I completed my masters in Curriculum and Instruction from Concordia University. All of my education serves only as a backdrop to my experiences working with children. We learn from each other everyday. My family and I live in Irvine. My daughter attends Northwood High School, and this year my son will continue to his education at the University of Arizona. We love to travel, go to the beach and out to see movies together. My family is a wonderful support to my profession and they give me lots of great ideas and advise. I am thrilled to share my love of learning with my students and to be a part of the Plaza Vista family.
