I’m so excited to welcome you to the 2025–2026 school year at Brighten Academy! I live on a 7-acre farm with my husband, Jay, and our two energetic boys (ages 8 and 4). We love spending time outdoors and making memories with family.

This is my third year teaching at Brighten, and I absolutely love being part of this incredible community. Third grade is such a fun and important year—full of growth, new challenges, and exciting learning adventures. I work hard to build a classroom where every student feels safe, valued, and inspired to be their best self.

I believe strong relationships and open communication between school and home are key to helping students thrive. I can’t wait to get to know you and your child as we partner together this year!

Let’s make it amazing!
