  First and foremost I am so excited to join The Chiron Academy family.  For the last 14 years, I have been at Canyon Rim Academy as a Behavioral specialist, Para-educator, Lead Aide, and Parking lot management.  I received my Para-educator license from the University of Utah in 2012.  
 

My goal is to help all kids know they are important and can accomplish their goals and to teach them to love learning and helping them become confident with themselves.  I love working with kids!!
  

My favorite things to do are hiking, swimming, reading, travel, going on long walks, gardening, taking drives through the mountains, and hanging with my cat.
