Hello, my name is Ms. Faiola. I am excited to continue being a part of this wonderful Ascent team! I have been with Ascent West Valley as the math specialist since 2020. Prior to that I taught 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade at another local charter school. In 2019 I earned a Master’s of Education degree from Utah State University (Go Aggies!).

In my free time I like to go hiking, camping, paddle-boarding, or mostly anything else outdoors. I have lived in Utah my entire life and I love all of the outdoor adventure opportunities that this state has to offer. I also love reading books and learning new things. Lounging in my backyard with a good book is my favorite place to be. Most of all, I love being an educator and there is nothing I would rather be doing than having fun with students and helping them learn and grow.
