I taught there for six years before coming over to Rooney Ranch Elementary. I have now been at Rooney for 20 years and love every day, as every day offers so many different opportunities. I have also been a softball coach at D’Evelyn High School since 1995. Coaching gives me the opportunity to work with both elementary and high school students.

I am a Colorado Native, born and raised right here in Lakewood. I have spent my whole life as a part of Jeffco, either as a student, or teaching. I even graduated from MSU in Denver. This year is my 6th year working in the district, but my very first year as a STEM teacher! I am so excited because I am a big nerd and I get to share that passion with the whole school! I love all things space, natural science, computer engineering, programming, and I especially love to learn new things every day! I enjoy working with my hands and spend most of my free time either crafting or playing video games with my husband, if I can keep my two cats from "helping". When I can, I love to travel, especially to other countries. I love to see how other people live and try new things while I'm there. I've been to 10 different countries so far but I hope to bump that number up a little soon.

This is my third year with custodial as well as Rooney Ranch Elementary, and it's a wonderful place to work! I was born in the beautiful European country of Bosnia-Herzegovina, and my family and I moved here over 18 years ago. I speak both Bosnian and English fluently. I enjoy traveling, trying new foods and learning new things. I think no matter who you are, being a student will never fade because curiosity is perpetual.

I have been in food service for 11 years. I think Rooney Ranch is a wonderful school and community. I am married and have 2 grown sons and one grandson whom I adore.
