“I absolutely love to teach, and am particularly drawn to teaching adolescents,” says Emily. “I feel truly lucky to have found my calling early in life, and love to be with my students and help them navigate new challenges and gain confidence from acquiring new skills and knowledge.”
Emily also enjoys rock climbing, yoga, gardening, quilting, and canning. She currently spends most of her time taking care of her TumTum daughter Nora, and newborn son Theo. Her husband also shares her love of teaching, and is a high school science teacher at Hockinson High School.
