Mrs. Mink

Hello! My name is Mrs. Mink. I am beyond excited to be working at Constitution! I graduated from Arizona State University with my Master's in Elementary Education. I am the Special Education teacher for grades 2 and 3. My goal is to find the best strategies to help students learn through specially designed instruction. I believe every student is individually creative and able to learn in new and different ways. 

Some things I like to do for fun are: going to the lake, playing the claw machine (everything I get goes to the kids, it's a win win), helping animals, and obsessing over sloths. I also love volleyball and punk rock. I was born and raised in Las Vegas, NV. I went to Oregon on an athletic and academic scholarship, then transferred to Missouri to continue to play volleyball as an outside hitter. I got my Bachelor's of Arts from Missouri Valley College before moving to Arizona. I met the love of my life while going to school in Missouri, and we had the most amazing lake wedding at Bass Lake, CA in July 2024!
