I began teaching in 2004. I have taught many different grade levels in many different districts. I feel like this wide diversity has helped me really grasp what I want and how I want my classroom to look like. I know that all children can learn and they all do learn differently. 

This is my second year teaching at Morris and I am so happy to be “home.” It was always my dream to come back and teach at the school who made me into the person I am today! I currently teach 6, 7, & 8^th Language Arts and Math. 

I am currently widdowed but know that it has made me look at life in a whole new perspective. I am a much stronger person now and have been able to use my experience to help others. 

Welcome!! This year will be my 15^th year in education I teach 6^th, 7^th, and 8^th grade Language Arts and Math. Most of my career was spent teaching in Elementary grades, but I wanted to be adventurous and try middle school. It was the best change I have ever made!! I love my job and all of the experiences that come with it. My favorite pass times are reading books, and watching football or baseball. I love to be outside and spending time with my family. I believe all children can be successful and will do everything to encourage that they see their worth! I believe in treating others with kindness and respect and always think you should choose the high road. The motto I am living by this year is #chooselove
