  I grew up in East Boise along with my husband Adam. We have been married for seventeen years and have four children. My passion for history started at a young age while watching Little House on the Prairie reruns and reading Laura Ingalls Wilder's books. I have a BA in History from Boise State which included a semester in London studying English history and the arts and a semester in a historic 1840s frontier town studying American history. I also walked 200 miles with a 19th century style wagon train reenactment while studying the Westward Migration. After graduating from BSU, I spent three months backpacking across Europe visiting many of the places I had been learning about the previous four years. I love education and learning!
  For ten years, I worked for a high school foreign exchange program in the Treasure Valley mentoring international students, working with school administrators and volunteer host families, many times acting as mediator to resolve a wide variety of difficult issues.
  Most recently, I initiated HB413 requiring cities over 100k to establish districts for city council representatives. I collaborated with others from various political backgrounds involving meetings with many state legislators, testifying in committee hearings, and rallying citizen support to secure passage of the bill.
  I love outdoor adventures with my family, exploring the world, reading, thriftstore treasures, all types of music, and Seinfeld. ​
  Always Students First
  Student success should be at the heart of every decision made. The school board should designate as much funding as possible that will directly benefit students.
  Student proficiency and well-being should be the priority. The school board's primary focus should always be providing our students with a quality education.
  Parents know their kids best. Decisions about students' education should always involve teachers and parents. I support parent choice for masks and vaccines.
  Although remote learning should be an option, open schools are essential for their achievement. For many students, access to in person learning, their peers, sports, and other activities is vital to their success.
