Education: I attended elementary and high school in the Carrollton R-7 district. I attended SFCC for 2 years, then transferred to UCM for my final two years where I earned my Bachelor's Degree in Early Childhood Education.  I originally set out to get a degree in Speech Language Pathology, then switched to Early Childhood Education.

Experience: I began teaching in 2010 and worked here at CES teaching 3rd grade for one year, 4th grade for 5 years and 5/6th grade for 5 years until 2021. Then I took 3 years off and had a daycare in Emma, MO. I came back to the district in 2024 as the CES librarian and am loving this current role!

Family: I have been married to my husband Tyler for 9 years, and we have two kiddos that both attend CES. 

Hobbies: Reading, gardening, cooking/baking, playing with my kiddos.

Favorite Quote: Reading is a passport to countless adventures
