I am looking forward to the this coming school year as the 7^th and 8^th grade homeroom teacher in addition to teaching 5^th-8^th grade science and math.  I graduated from Concordia University Wisconsin in 2000 with a major in elementary education and minor in science.  Recently, I returned to school to pursue a Master’s in reading education with a focus of reading in the content area classroom.  The majority of my teaching career has been at the 5^th-8^th grade levels, however, I have also taught 1^st and 3^rd grade as self-contained classrooms.  The Lord has blessed me with teaching opportunities around the United States including Hawaii, Louisiana, Illinois, and now Wisconsin.

I enjoy spending time with my family and see my niece and nephew as often as I can.  In my spare time, I enjoy scrapbooking, cooking, watching baseball, reading, snorkeling and travel. 

I value a quality Christian education and am looking forward to working with all of the students, families, congregation members, and co-workers at Concordia Lutheran.
