I am from a small town, just north of Rockford. I went to NIU for my Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education, and middle school endorsements in language arts, science, and social studies. In December 2019, I graduated with my Master’s Degree in Differentiated Instruction from Concordia University of Chicago. When we are not in school, my husband and I like to travel. We have been to 16 countries in the last 4 years, on every continent except Antarctica.

I joined the Plank team in 2014. I am a proud Pirate and look forward to meeting you!
