I am a Marion native and graduated from Marion High School in 1989. I graduated from John A. Logan & Southern Illinois University-Carbondale. After college graduation, my husband Jon and I moved to Florence, South Carolina. I taught for six years at South Florence High School and had two children, William & Gloria. Next, we moved to Lincoln, Nebraska. After living there for 5½ years and adding another child to our family, Kathryn, we returned to Marion in June 2008. I began working at MHS in August 2009. My husband is a Business Manager at Watermark Ford and we live in Marion.
