Kristen has taught Mathematics for 30 years in Utah, New Jersey and Washington state. Her experiences teaching Middle School, High School and College students have helped her realize that students can be successful in mathematics using their own strengths. She focuses her teaching on helping students fix their misconceptions as quickly as possible. Kristen moved back to Utah with her three children in 2020 and loves being back in the mountains. Kristen enjoys spending her free time with her children and granddaughter, playing the piano and organ, reading, riding bikes, and being outside in the cooler weather of fall and winter.
