I try to find joy in the small things in life. I’m a mom of 4 awesome kids and 5 fur babies. I absolutely love all things Disney I am also a big fan of Star Wars, Dr. Who, and Harry Potter (basically I’m just a big kid at heart).
I teach to help build a brighter future, and to encourage students and people to explore mathematics and hopefully alleviate some of their fears toward math.

Educational Background:
- Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education from Northeastern State University
- Master’s of Mathematics Education from Northeastern State University
I’ve lived in Oklahoma my whole life, but I LOVE to travel and I’ve been to eight different countries and over twenty-five states. I love music (come find me to talk about BTS and Taylor Swift) and I also play several instruments and sing. Catch me anytime to talk about anything nerdy–video games, writing, books, movies, TV shows, YouTube, etc. And I do genuinely enjoy math! I love surprising people with my variety of skills and interests and showing them that you don’t have to limit yourself to one area.
I teach because I want to help students find their way through life and help them find what kind of person they want to be. I did not have much confidence growing up, and so I hope to show my students how they can be confident in themselves and in their skills. I also hope to begin to show my students all of the opportunities that lie ahead of them. The world is wide open to them and I want to make sure they are able to take full advantage of it!

I teach because I enjoy it. I enjoy fostering and guiding someone to that point of discovery because I find it beautiful and expansive for them and myself. I believe that we are all in a kind of student/teacher cycle throughout our entire lives and I wish to embrace that interdependence.
It is curious to me how I can look to the night sky in wonder, and marvel at how well physics has described that celestial dance and our inseparable place in it, yet I feel that often when many of us look upon ourselves, that wonder is no longer present. I want to live a life that encourages that sense of wonder in the individual as well as the whole.
