Profesora Shelburne 🇪🇸
I'm very excited to be helping RSA start their new high school Spanish program this year!
About Me
I am married with two kids (both attend RSA). I was born and raised in Portland, OR but moved to Redding in 2017. We have a dog, cat, crested gecko, rabbit and chickens that keep us busy and entertained. I love to travel, read, hike and garden. I really enjoy being a part of the RSA community with my kids; we love all of the unique opportunities to learn and try new things!
