As she joins Colearn Academy, Heidi is excited to take on something new and engage with the curriculum she will be teaching. She looks forward to growing professionally while contributing to a learning environment that supports both students and families.

Heidi was inspired to become a teacher by the strong and impactful educators she had during her own time as a student. Their influence shaped her desire to create similar experiences for her own students by fostering encouragement, support, and academic growth.

A fun fact about Heidi is that she has an identical twin sister.
