Bio

My name is Kelsey Foster. I've been at Eastern for four years, and I will graduate after completing my student teaching this winter. I'm from Richland, WA originally, and I've lived in Spokane for four years. I got married this summer! My husband, Cameron, and I spend a ton of time outdoors - we went camping, rock climbing, or boating at the lake nearly every weekend this summer. We currently live on the South Hill with our dog, Jaeda, but plan to move to Alaska as soon as I graduate.

I have five sisters and two brothers who are spread out all across the country. Two of my sisters live on the west side of the state, one lives in Oregon, one in South Carolina, and another in Lousiana. My brothers both live in New York City. As much as I miss having everyone all together, its been a lot of fun travelling all across the country to see my brothers and sisters.

In addition to being a full-time student, I work full time at Applebees on the south hill. I have a job offer in Palmer, Alaska teaching middle school English and middle and high school ESL beginning in the fall of 2009, so Cameron, Jaeda and I will be moving there in April.

Lastly, but perhaps most importantly, I am a die hard Seahawks fan. I attended the season home opener on September 14th when the Seahawks were sadly (but barely) defeated by the 49ers, and will return to Seattle at the end of November when the Seahawks play the Redskins. I'm a huge Jim Zorn fan, (the ultimate and original Seahwawk quarterback!!!), so watching the team he now coaches play my favorite team will be interesting.

Besides all of that, there's not a whole lot else to say. I'm excited to finally be done going to school, and I can't wait to have my own classroom!
