**About Me** I was born and raised in Las Vegas, NV. I attended Jacobson Elementary School, Johnson Junior High, Bonanza High school, and graduated in 2009. After I graduated, I moved to Utah where I attended Utah Valley University in Orem. I graduated in 2013, with a Bachelors in Elementary Education, and I have loved every minute of it. ======

I enjoy spending lots and lots of time with my **sweet** family and friends. During my years at UVU, I got married and am enjoying my busy, and exciting life as a teacher and wife! My husband is currently in optometry school, and is anticipated to graduate shortly! ======



In our free time, we love to be outside, running and exercising, or inside watching baseball, drinking chocolate milk while the peach cobbler is baking in the oven! I love to spend Saturdays at the local Hobby Lobby, picking out crafts for my next few projects. I love to make beautiful things that will make my living room and classroom feel warm and inviting! Here are a few pictures of my projects I have been working on recently for my house and our classroom!



Las Vegas has trained me very well to LOVE the sunshine and the dry heat. Every year, during the summer, my whole family takes off to Carlsbad, California for a couple weeks. It's my favorite vacation. I love to travel, anywhere and everywhere, but my most desirable place will always be the beach!

I love to bake! I am one that believes that the perfect chocolate chip cookie take meticulous planning and execution, so I do my best to try them out every week, and every now and then I like to bring them to class to share for prizes and treats! :) I love to cook and bake new things. My favorite food is italian. I love pizzas, and pastas, and delicious bread sticks! We love to make experiment making smoothies, and milkshakes at home. My favorite desert is probably a pazookie, which is a deep dish, warm, chocolate chip cookie with vanilla ice cream on top! Yum!

For those mom's that love to bake, here is my perfect chocolate chip cookie recipe! []

My FAVORITE thing to do of course is TEACH! I love it, and I am so excited to get to know each one of you and your hobbies and interests!
