Tressa holds a K–12 Special Education Generalist degree from Colorado Christian University and brings a fascinating range of life experience to her work — including 25 years as a licensed cosmetologist. She first joined Havern in 2010, returned again in 2020, and has also taught in the SSN program at Fort Logan Northgate Middle School. What she loves about Havern is its deep commitment to students, families, and educators alike. She describes the opportunity to help unlock each student's potential as a genuine gift. Outside of school, Tressa is happiest with family and friends, in the garden, sewing, cooking, traveling when she can, and cheering loudly for college football — Go Blue!
