Tammy works as an elementary teacher in Fairbanks, Alaska. Over the years I have taught students in kindergarten through middle school, both in the general and special education classrooms. I hold two Masters degrees in the field of education and have a wide range of experience in education policy and practice. As an NEA member, I have served as the local president representing over 1000 educators. Currently, I represent NEA-Alaska on the NEA Board of Directors. I enjoy spending time with my two daughters and wonderful grandchildren.
