Meet Mrs. Roach!

What's your new ICS title and position?

I am very excited to be the new second grade teacher at ICS!

Where are you from? If you're not originally from UT, how did you end up here?

I was born in Tennessee, but have lived in a total of eight states in the U.S.A and one country internationally. We are now moving down to Utah (from Idaho) because my husband is a Delta pilot and has been based in Salt Lake City (SLC). We love all of the outdoor activities like backpacking, skiing, and rock climbing and think that SLC will be a perfect fit for us!

Where do you go to Church?

We haven’t officially moved down to SLC yet, but when we do, we will be attending the Wasatch Hills Seventh Day Adventist Church.

What is something most people don't know about you?

Most people don’t know that I secretly love adrenaline filled activities. I have many fears, but I always find it empowering to overcome them!

What are you looking forward to most in your new role at ICS?

I am looking forward to meeting my new students and getting to know them! I can’t wait to see what Jesus has in store for us in second grade!

Tell us about your family!

My husband and I will be celebrating our 2nd wedding anniversary in July. We love traveling together, and this past year we visited a total of 14 countries! It’s just the two of us for now, but we are looking to grow our family with a puppy soon!

What else would you like the ICS community to know about you?

You will quickly learn that a few of my favorite things include being outside, traveling to new places, taking care of my plants, eating sour candies, watching football, and most importantly, spending time with Jesus. I can't wait to meet everyone and get to know you all!

Welcome to ICS, Mrs. Roach! Your ICS community is looking forward to getting to know you more this fall. We’ll see you soon!
