Hello!

I am a 3rd grade teacher for East Grand Forks Public Schools, in East Grand Forks, Minnesota.  August 2024 will be my 13th year in the district, six years as a kindergarten teacher, seven years as a 3rd grade teacher. My background is in early childhood education, and have a licensure to teach birth to 3rd grade.

I live in the community with my husband and two sons. We enjoy spending time as a family, being outside, and going to the lake.

I believe that early childhood are the golden years that set the stage for the years to come. I believe in teaching the whole child; academically, emotionally, and socially. It is an exciting age range to be apart of as the students show such a strong passion for learning!
