I graduated from high school as a B/E Charger and then went on to college at Concordia in Moorhead, MN. I spent a semester abroad living and studying in Segovia, Spain during my senior year of college.

I got my teaching license through Bemidji State University and my Master's in Educational Leadership through Moorhead State University. I have taken students on trips to Spain twice, once to the Dominican Republic, and will be heading back to Europe in the summer of 2026!

I am very excited to be able to share my cultural experiences with my students and hopefully spread my love of the Spanish language!
