Hi friends! I'm new to both the Spearfish School District as well as the position of a Computer Teacher and Technology Integrationist. I started my adventure in the district last year and I'm so excited to continue to learn and grow with all of our students. I'm looking forward to growing both personally and professionally, and watching all of the kids learn and develop into youth that are ready for the next challenge in life.
I'm originally from Western Nebraska (Go Big Red!), and attended college at Black Hills State University here in Spearfish. After graduating with a Bachelor Degree in Elementary Education and Special Education, I began my teaching career as a K-6 Resource Teacher in Burns, Wyoming. The experiences and relationships shared there were wonderful, challenging, and taught me about myself and the world of children and education. I now live with my adorable son, Parker Fox. I had him this past December and he has brought so much joy into my life. The students have been very involved with his being born (they want to know how he's doing and to see photos and have brought in the sweetest handmade cards as well as gifts - being a computer teacher is the best!) and it is so sweet to share the journey with them. I enjoy doing just about anything with friends and family, but I usually gravitate towards reading a good book, gardening, hiking, painting, listening to music, riding bikes, and watching movies. My current favorite pastime involves snuggling my baby. :)
