About Me

My name is Caitlin Olmstead. I was born in Valley Forge, PA and lived there until I was 14 years old. After that, I moved to Gilbert, AZ where I attended high school. In high school I participated in a lot of theater and a lot of choir. Those two activities took up much of my time there.

I came to BYU-Idaho to study Music Education with an emphasis in Choir. On my off-track I went home and got married and then my husband and I traveled around the United States working as decorative painters on different temples. After that, we returned to BYU-Idaho. When we came back I changed my major to Psychology.

I am still thrilled to learn all about the methods of education because I know that it will be helpful for me as a parent. Here I will share what has been the start of a journey of life-long teaching and learning.
