Random Facts
- I’ve lived in Hooper nearly all my life. Much of my childhood was spent on the back of a horse. Horses were my first love after my daddy. I had the dream of being Miss Rodeo Utah. I achieved that goal in 1990 and received scholarships to WSU that helped me fulfill another lifetime goal of being a kindergarten teacher. Being Miss Rodeo Utah and getting the honor to represent Utah and to wear a crown and buckle with a bee and a beehive is the reason for my love of bees and my classroom theme.
- I love and enjoy teaching power tumbling. I have run my own tumbling business for the last 39 years.I have been very blessed with the families/students I have met over the years.
- l live in Hooper with my husband, Bryce. I have four fabulous children: Brock (wife: Bailey, Rachel Jo, Walker & Hayden. I love my adorable grandsons: Benjamin & Baylor and my sweet granddaughter Brentley Jo. I LOVE spending time with my family!
