I believe working with children is as rewarding as it is challenging, which fuels my passion for teaching. I am privileged to teach fourth graders at the Prairie Ridge in Reedsburg, Wisconsin. I particularly enjoy leading students to new discoveries and encouraging their goals. I completed my bachelor's degree at UW-River Falls and my master's degree through UW-La Crosse. I am also a National Board Certified teacher. Of my many interests and hobbies, spending time in nature and reading are my favorites.
