I have an awesome family made up of my mom, dad, sister, brother-in-law, and two beautiful nieces. I went to college at the University of Northwestern-Saint Paul, MN where I double majored in Early Childhood Education and Elementary Education.

In 2006 I moved to Lincoln to teach preschool at Arnold Elementary. I got my ELL (English Language Learners) masters endorsement in 2012 from Concordia University in Nebraska.   In 2013 I took a leave of absence from LPS and moved to Port-au-Prince, Haiti. I taught English at a Haitian elementary school for students in kindergarten through sixth grade and worked as an “extra mom” for boys and girls at an orphanage. I moved back to Lincoln in 2014 to continue teaching preschool at Arnold.
