Fossil Ridge Faculty >> Specialized >> Mrs. Fernandez

Mrs. Fernandez was born at an early age in Southern California where she probably spent too much time reading, riding bikes, and going to the beach. She did manage to fit in school at BYU and Cal-Poly San Luis Opispo earning a degree in agriculture. With more idealism than expertise, she went to work on a school gardening program in Chile where she eventually met her husband. After more time in both Southern California and Chile, where she was the elementary school teacher (Nido de Agulias) in Santiago, she had her family of two daughters and one son came to Saint Gerorge. She began working at Fossil Ridge when the school opened and recieved her elementary education degree and media endorsement in 2007.
