This is my eighth and final year teaching at the Washington Center. I have truly enjoyed working with my students!

I am originally from Illinois. I graduated from Eastern Illinois University with a degree in Recreation with an emphasis on Therapeutic Recreation. I have completed course work to become a special educator in the states of Illinois, Florida, and South Carolina.

My husband, Michael and I enjoy reading and taking area day trips. We also enjoy visits with our daughter, son-in-law, and two year old granddaughter.
