It has been my pleasure to be a teacher at Hailey Elementary for the past ten years.  I first taught kindergarten at Hailey Elementary and moved to first grade six years ago.  Before coming to Idaho I had been a first grade teacher in the San Francisco Bay Area in the town that I was born and raised.  I received my Bachelor's degree from U.C. Berkeley and my teaching credential from San Francisco State University.  My husband and I moved to the Wood River Valley 13 years ago and consider ourselves quite fortunate to live in this beautiful valley.  When I'm not teaching, I spend time hiking, swimming, and gardening.
