About Me

I grew up in Norfolk, Nebraska. I have one sister and two brothers.  My parents still live in Norfolk and we enjoy returning to visit the small town life.  I then attended and graduated from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.

My husband, Joe, is a financial planner.  We have two children, Lucas, 18, and Sophie, 17.  They keep us busy attending their various sports and activities. We also have a Pembroke Welsh Corgi named Cooper.

I have spent my entire teaching career at Calvert.  I started out as a Resource Teacher.  I have also taught third grade and fourth grade. I believe I’ve worked at one time or another with all grades except kindergarten.  However, the bulk of my teaching has been in second grade.

In my free time I enjoy spending time with family, traveling, making scrapbooks, and reading.  I also enjoy taking my dog, or rather my dog taking me, for walks.
