Meet Our Trainer
Nancy Davis
As a 6th grade teacher, Nancy had a Spellbinder storyteller coming into her classroom, which motivated her to join Jeffco Spellbinder Storytellers in 2010 after she retired. She has discovered the joy and magic of telling stories not only to 5th and 6th graders, but also K – 2nd graders. Her passion for storytelling comes through in her classroom visits and in her role as a trainer for new volunteers.
If you or someone you know is interested in signing up for our Volunteer Training, please contact her at ncdavis3@hotmail.com. It will bring magic and love to your life!
