Education: Masters of Science in Educational Leadership from Cardinal Stritch University. Bachelor of Science Degree in Elementary Education from the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay and a certificate in Alternative Education from Marion University.
Teaching Experience: I started at St. Joe's as a 5th grade teacher in the 2018-2019 school year and transitioned to middle school (6th grade) in the 2023-2024 school year. I absolutely love this community! Previously, I had taught four years of 3rd grade at a Catholic school in Milwaukee. I have been a long-term substitute teacher for all age levels, ranging from preschool to high school.
Family Life: My husband, Dustin, and I were married in June 2018. We welcomed our baby girl, Tenley, into the world in November 2021. We live in Oak Creek with our kitty, Finn.
Interest & Hobbies: Most of my time outside of school is spent snuggling Tenley. I also enjoy reading, traveling, and spending time with friends and family! We love to spend time at our family cottage up north. I love sports and cheer on the Packers, Badgers, and Brewers!
I feel truly blessed to be part of such a wonderful community here at St. Joseph's. The students, parents and staff make St. Joseph Catholic School is such a wonderful place to be! St. Joseph's is proof of what a gift a Catholic education is!
