I graduated from Eastern Illinois University with a Bachelors Degree in Elementary Education and a concentration in Middle School Science in December 2009.  My passion has always been working with kids and sharing my love of learning with them.  The 2022-23 school year will be my 4th year at Otto Middle School and 10th year teaching.  I have had experience teaching grades 5-8.

I married my husband in July of 2010.  We have two sons and enjoy traveling as a family as much as we can.
