About Lynnea
I grew up in Colorado Springs with two rambunctious younger brothers and a mother and father who were career educators.  In 2009, I moved to Calfornia to pursue a Music Education degree at California Baptist University, where I met my husband.  We moved to Washington just days after our wedding, due to a last minute job offer, and have enjoyed the beauty of the Northwest for the last three years.  In my free time, I enjoy baking, running, playing just-about-any competitive sport, singing in a community choir, and helping my husband (who's a worship leader) with music at our church.

Interest & Experience in Education
I am currently teaching band, choir, and worship team classes at Rainier Christian Middle and High School. I just completed my third year with the district and have thoroughly enjoyed working with the whole gamut of secondary students.  I love investing in students and spend most of my summers coaching track and field, counseling at summer camps, teaching vocal lessons, and working with the youth group at my church. As a graduate student at Seattle Pacific University, I am currently working on a Masters degree in Teaching and Washington teacher certification with an endorsement in choral music.  I am thankful for the opportunity to further my professional development and hope to use the knowledge and skills to become a more effective educator.
