A little bit about me...

2024-25 marks my 26th year of teaching!  

I received my Bachelor of Music Education from the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign, and my Masters of Music Education from VanderCook College of Music in Chicago.

I love spending time with my family: my husband Jon,  two daughters-Sarah (Senior in High School) and Emily (Freshman in High School), our cats: Bo Peep and Pizzicato. In my free time, I play in the viola section of the Elmhurst Symphony Orchestra and in a string quartet-Celestial Strings.   In the evenings and weekends, I am usually at a music event or a softball game or tennis match for one of my kids.
