Even though I was born in Boston, I call Casper my home.  Growing up here, I attended local Elementary, Jr. High and High Schools in Casper.  Let me just say, “Go KW Trojans!”  I became familiar with Casper College at a young age by attending sporting events, Key Camp and other fun activities on campus.  I started my college career at Casper College in 1997.  I graduated with an A.A. in Human Communication and then attended UW/CC and the University of Wyoming to obtain my B.S. in Mass Media Communication.  I finished at the University with my M.A. in Interpersonal Communication with the emphasis in Gender Communication in 2005 and decided I wanted to come back and teach at the place that inspired me in so many ways…Casper College.  I feel so lucky to be a Communication Instructor, Assistant Speech & Debate Coach and Director of the Oral Communication Lab on campus.   

I teach a variety of classes in the Communication discipline:

CO/M 1010: Public Speaking

CO/M 1030: Interpersonal Communication

CO/M 1040: Intro to Human Communication

CO/M 1060: Forensics I

CO/M 2135: Gender, Communication & Culture

CO/M 2060: Forensics II

Anyone that knows me knows that I LOVE SHOES!  I have hundreds of pairs and also collect miniature size shoes as well.  Let’s just put it this way, if it has a shoe on it…I love it!  I am also a huge sports fan.   I enjoy watching football (Chargers Fan), basketball (Celtics Fan), softball, tennis, volleyball, baseball (Giants & Padres Fan), dance and figure skating.  Yes, figure skating.  I actually was a competitive figure skater growing up and have coached skaters all the way to Regional victories!  I have worked at the Casper Recreation Center/Ice Arena since 1997 and have enjoyed all the people I have had the opportunity meeting.  My favorite hobby is traveling and getting to spend time with my family and friends!
