Our Team

This photo was taken at my farm. My farm is my hobby! My family is my life! ORIGO is my passion!

I enjoy the challenge of being creative with many of my best results in the kitchen! My proudest achievements have been creating activities that make teaching and learning mathematics interesting for everyone.

If I had as much trust in airlines as I had in ORIGO and our team I’d take my surfboard everywhere!

I spend my airplane time with fiber - sewing, crochet, or knitting. I enjoy the color & texture; there's also lots of math!

I learned from these kids that I can make a lasting positive impact, and if I enrich the life of a teacher, I can influence the lives of even more students.

50 by 50! I love to travel and hope to visit 50 states by my 50th birthday. Almost there!

Take me out to the ballgame! When I'm not hitting homeruns or watching my son hit them, you can find me watching the Astros hit 1 out of the park!

I enjoy everything that involves spending time with my family. My boys keep me busy going to baseball games, soccer games & golf tournaments. Having fun & enjoying our time together is amazing.

I am not a jogger; I'm a slogger - a slow jogger! I'm persistent through injuries & back surgery. I've slow jogged my way across the finish lines of 7 half marathons!

I love to read! It gives me a way to improve myself & grow as a person. Although this book is old, it has held the exact reminders I needed to be a better mom, daughter, friend & co-worker.

My sweet daughter fills my heart every day! She brings laughter and love! Mountain-biking connects me with nature and beautiful friends….we call ourselves the Dirt Side Sisters!

This Guitar Pick shows how math is beautiful music to me. I Majored in Music & play the following when time permits: piano, keyboards, guitar, bass, midi drum programming & some vocals.

I believe making learning accessible for all students aligns with giving students what they need as individuals (equity) vs giving all students that same thing (equality). “Until we get equality in education, we won't have an equal society.” Sonia Sotomayor

I love all of life’s adventures: Travelling to new countries, tasting new foods, sight-seeing, making new friends & just experiencing the world around me. My greatest adventure is watching my amazing twin boys tackle their own life adventures.

I've been knocking down 10 PIns since age 5 & stopping pucks since age 12. My elementary education career began in 1990 & my hapPIest moments are teaching mathematics!

I’m passionate about working with teachers on the teaching and learning of mathematics. I love my animals, gardening, hiking, going to the beach, and attending Dave Matthews concerts.
