I began teaching in 2013, and originally hail from Waterbury, Vermont (home of Ben & Jerry’s icecream!). I currently live in Longmont with my husband, cat, two dogs, and four chickens. When I’m not at Trail Ridge, you will likely find me outside…either adventuring in the mountains, working in my garden, or training my dogs. I particularly enjoy trail running, cross-country skiing, backpacking, horseback riding, gardening, agility, and trick training. I also have a degree in fine arts, and still love watercolor painting when I can find the time! My favorite thing about teaching is connecting 1:1 with my students and learning about their own unique passions and talents.
