This year will be my 13th year in education, but my second year at Viking Middle School.

I have worked with students as young as preschool and as old as college; middle schoolers are my favorite.

My husband and I have one son who is a sophomore at Warren.

I received my bachelor's degree in elementary education with a middle school endorsement from Elmhurst University and just recently graduated with my master's degree from Kansas State University.

In my free time I like to spend time with family and travel. I hope to some day make it to all 50 states.
