Welcome to 3rd grade! This is my 28th year teaching elementary school! My teaching career began when I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education from Illinois Wesleyan University. I later earned a Master of Education from Xavier University as a Reading Specialist, and a Master of Arts in Instructional Leadership from Northern Kentucky University. 

With my husband, two children, and three dogs, I live in Cincinnati, Ohio. My oldest daughter is a Senior at Wright State University in Dayton, Ohio. She is majoring in Middle School Education. My youngest daughter is a Junior Visual Arts major at The School for Creative and Performing Arts in Cincinnati.  My husband runs our daycare business in Milford. Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my family, being outdoors, reading and doing yoga.
