About Mrs. LenaAbout Mrs. Lena
I am a first generation Phoenician! My dad is from Michigan and my mom is from Ohio. I lived my first 9 years in New River where we had a ranch with goats, chickens and dogs. In first grade while attending New River Elementary School, my teacher, Miss Young ignited in me a love for learning. She helped make my school days fun and worthwhile. I am happy to say I am still in contact with her. I graduated from Arizona State University with my Bachelor’s Degree and received my Master’s Degree from University of Phoenix. Though I have not always been an elementary school teacher, most of my experience has been working in education. The last few years I have taught in second and first grade, but I absolutely love Kindergarten! My husband, Joe, and I have been married for four wonderful years! My husband works for BMW, where he has been for the last seven years. We have two cats named Baby and Rufus. We enjoy our little fur family! We are also lucky enough to have our families and friends nearby that we spend time with. In my spare time I enjoy four-wheeling and hiking with my husband, watching movies, reading, and home-improvement projects. When we can, we love to travel and see new places. |
