Welcome to my Teacher site! I have been teaching Band and Elementary Music at Antwerp since 2013. I am originally from Wellsville, Ohio (on the Ohio River in Northeast Ohio), graduating from Southern Local High School in 1997. My Bachelors (2002) and Masters in Music (2009) are both from Ohio University. Before landing in Northwest Ohio, I taught in Cleveland, Newark, and Kansas, which is where my husband is from. My husband, Damon is also a band director at Delphos St Johns. We were married in 2011, and live in New Haven, Indiana with our 6 cats. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my husband in Fort Wayne, travelling, watching TV shows together, and reading lots of books.
