About Me:
I LOVE science! I am a graduate of the STEM program at Dutch Fork High School in 2010 and because of that program, I pursued science in college and came back to share my love of the subject with students at DFHS. I have taught Physical Science CP, HN, and STEM, Biology HN and STEM, Forensics, and AP Biology in some combination over the last 8 years and I'm excited to continue sharing my love of science with my students this year.
I also love traveling, coffee (Starbucks!/PSL), mystery novels, the Harry Potter series, funny memes, and long walks with my son, my husband, and/or my dog.
