| I got married on Jan. 3rd. 2009 My husband's name is Brent Felsted |

| Years teaching? |
| I have been at FVHS for 17 years as a basketball coach, substitue teacher, and now as a full time English/Language Arts Teacher. This is my 12th year teaching English at FVHS. |

| Most memorable moment |
| I guess I should add the day I got married to this list now!
My most memorable moment was the day I stood on a mountain top at the exact point where Honduras, Guatemala, & El Salvador connect! El Triumfo!
My most fearful experience was sleeping in a hammock in the Amazon jungle in Brazil for 12 hours...talk about your mind playing tricks on you! Yikes!!
The moment I hear the words " I get it!" I know I have experienced the ultimate moment in teaching & coaching!! |
