Mrs. Trish Nielson is a world geography and history teacher at Springville Junior High School. She was born in Houston, Texas and grew up in Kingwood, Texas. She went to an elementary school, and then later a middle school, called Kingwood Middle School. At that school, she was the mascot (which was a cougar) for sporting events. She would wear the cougar costume with pride and would have fun getting the crowd rallied up for the schools’ teams. When she was older, she attended Kingwood High School, whose mascot was the Mustangs.
Before she became a teacher, she was an account manager, telephone surveyor, and is still a mom. Her first job, was when she lived in Lindon, Utah. She worked for Artic Circle. Mrs. Nielson wanted to become a teacher so she could share her knowledge of geography with students. She loves getting out of bed in the morning to teach her students, who are her joy. She also likes to have fun and talk and debate about history. She is willing to debate with anyone who wants to learn more about history and perspectives.
