Education: I received my BA degree in Elementary Education (grades 1-9) from Mount Mary College in 1988. Since then, I have taken over fifty graduate credits, keeping up to date on current trends and technologies in Elementary Education.
Teaching Experience: My teaching career began in a first grade classroom at St. Paul School in 1988. In 1990, I accepted the first grade teaching position at Mother of Good Counsel School (MGC). I remained at MGC for 11 years before joining the terrific teaching team at St. Joseph Catholic School in 2001.
Family Life: I have a wonderfully involved husband and two beautiful children who were fortunate to attend St. Joe's from K4 through 8th grade. I am so happy with how their years at St. Joe's prepared them for the next phases of their lives.
Interests & Hobbies: We really enjoy doing things together as a family, such as attending sporting events, concerts and festivals, exploring the small towns in Wisconsin, watching movies, vacationing and playing games. I love non-fiction reading, gardening, exploring new places, craft sales and laughing with good friends!
I have chosen to teach in the Catholic School my entire career because I truly believe that faith is a way of life that must be nurtured, developed, examined, and lived out every day beginning at the very youngest age. As a teacher, I strive to create a classroom environment in which every child feels valuable and special. I try very hard to make learning challenging, exciting, hands-on, and current.
