Hi Everyone! I am very excited about joining the Springer team and can’t wait to meet your students and families! After graduating from Cal Poly with a Speech Communications degree, I moved to Mountain View and worked in the technology field, until settling in Danville, where I raised two daughters (now in college) and earned a Master's in Educational Psychology and an Education Specialist degree. Over the years, I have worked with hundreds of students at all age levels, elementary through high school, and have found the career to be even more rewarding than I anticipated.  I grew up in San Diego and still love the beach. Two things I cannot live without are dark chocolate and English breakfast tea. I enjoy baking, hiking, trips with my partner, Kevin, activities with our kids, and playing with our dog, Oliver. I am looking forward to starting the school year at Springer!
