I am excited about the opportunity to teach in the PAC program. I have 19 years of coaching experience and taught two years of middle school social studies. I played collegiate volleyball at North Dakota State University, coached 15 years in Idaho as a middle school coach, head high school coach and club director. I am currently in my fourth year as the JV volleyball coach at Corvallis High School. I love the sport and desire to provide an active learning environment for the students so they will develop a lifelong love for physical activity.

I have been married for 29 years to my husband Dave and we have two grown children. I enjoy watching and participating in sports. I really like the outdoors, birds, flowers, coffee, chocolate and am passionate about building relationships with people. My faith is the most important part of my life which gives me the desire to love others unconditionally and hear their stories. Go Beavs!
