I am a New York state native that fell in love with Colorado when I moved out here 7 years ago. The mountains, sunshine, and endless adventures won over my heart! I worked at Rocky Mountain National Park for 4 seasons and then decided to become a science teacher. I love teaching kids how to explore and understand the world around them! When I'm not teaching, I am playing with my puppies, teaching kickboxing, or exploring as much as I can - I love go hiking, camping, skiing/snowboarding, and am on a mission to visit as many National Parks as I can!
