How I Came to BlueSky
I came across BlueSky while exploring other, more non-traditional teaching opportunities. As a former online student myself, I found online classes to be an amazing opportunity because they allowed me to learn on a schedule and at times that worked for me. I want to provide students with those same opportunities that made such a difference for me – flexibility, individual support, and in a way that works best for them to learn.

My Passions as an Educator
My favorite thing about being an educator is getting to build strong relationships with my students. I strive to make every student feel seen, understood, and know they are capable of success.

My Passions and Hobbies
I love summer and spending all my time on the boat whether it’s cruising around or wake surfing! In winter, I enjoy snowboarding until I get too cold. I also enjoy mountain biking. I recently have gotten into 3D printing which has been a fun hobby!
