I am a 2nd-grade teacher at Scott Elementary School. This is my ninth year teaching second grade at Scott Elementary School.

I have a degree in Elementary Education from Southern Illinois University Carbondale with a concentration in Science, Social Studies, and Language Arts. I have a masters degree from McKendree University in Educational Studies, Mathematics Instruction. I am completed my coursework for my Reading Specialist certification this summer from Southern Illinois University Edwardsville and plan to take the test soon!

Along with teaching second grade, I am on the 2nd Grade Math Instructional Guide Team and a member of the Guiding Coalition, which guides our school through the PLC process.
