Hello Families!

I have been teaching within the Minneapolis Public Schools with a Masters in Education my entire career.

I am a graduate of Minneapolis Public Schools.

My degrees at the University of MN include a major in American Studies, a minor in American Indian Studies, and a second language of ASL, sign language. I love learning about history, cultures, and people. For me, continued learning, traveling, and reading are essential.

The last ten plus years I have loved teaching third grade! The students teach me so much every year through project based learning while using problem-solving strategies and practicing higher level thinking skills. I love teaching to the whole child based on standards and critical thinking.

Please reach out with any questions or concerns.

Thank you for your support and communication!
