About Me

I try to keep a work / play balance in life. For my professional career, I have experience teaching elementary school through college level science. I also did a stint as a manufacturing research and development chemist at a startup making controlled pore glass for oligonucleotide synthesis. For fun, I like to ride my bike around town looking for entertainment, float on the water in the summer, play in the snow in the winter, and do Judo all year long.

I live on the Boise Bench with my husband, Michael Daglen, D.C., who is also employed by BSU in the Kinesiology Department teaching Bronco Fit Judo classes. As the BSU Judo Club Faculty Advisor and assistant instructor to the Judo courses, I spend a lot of time training Judo and contributing to the Judo community.
