This is my 5th year at Whiting Middle School. I have a Bachelor's Degree in History from Purdue University and completed the Transition to Teaching Program at Calumet College of St. Joseph here in Whiting. I currently live here in Whiting, along with my parents and sisters. I have a niece in college, a niece in High School and a nephew in Middle School. I also have a cat named, Apple Rose. When not at school, I like to spend time with family and take my youngest niece shopping, which is our weekend hobby. I enjoy reading history books mostly on early and modern US history, as well as some historical fiction books. When not reading about history, I enjoy reading Jane Austen's books as she is one of my favorite authors. I love the play Hamilton, as well as gnomes and sunflowers.
