#70 –Stephanie Mouritsen - Passionate Educator

2 years ago

Welcome to the #ShareYourHotness Podcast Episode 70!

Meet my friend Stephanie! :) We actually just met in real life, (or IRL as the kids say), but we've been friends online for a very long time.

Stephanie is the mother of eight (8!) kids in her personal life, and is an educator for an online school, where she oversees THOUSANDS of kids! Talk about a lot of papers to grade!

She was raised in a small agricultural town in northeastern rural Arizona. After marrying her 1st husband at 19, she moved to Utah, where they had three awesome sons. Now, she is remarried to her 2nd (and last) husband, Hugh--who also had three amazing children of his own (a son and two daughters) from his 1st marriage. They have been married to each other for 10 years and have a daughter and son together.

As a perpetual student, she earned a Master of Arts in Teaching and a Master of Science in Educational Leadership. She has been an educator for over 25 years: a para-educator, a high school teacher (English, Spanish, Yearbook, Interpersonal Communication), a university adjunct professor (something she still does for the Department of Communication at Weber State University), a junior high administrator, and now as a principal for an online school.

Stephanie loves to listen to books and podcasts, write, play the piano and sing, and learn new things (she recently started taking clogging lessons and learning Danish online). When she grows up (and retires from public education) she wants to be a professional genealogist, write a book, and travel to Denmark and Machu Picchu, Peru.
