Hello everyone! I'm excited to join SHPA this year. Here's a bit about my background.
I'm from Prior Lake, Minnesota, where I graduated from Prior Lake High School. I earned my bachelor's degree in Exercise and Sport Science with a minor in Athletic Coaching from Marian University in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. I pursued an alternative path to teacher certification, completing my health teaching licensure through CESA 9's Excellence in Teaching Program in Tomahawk, Wisconsin.
This is my fourth year in education. Before joining SHPA, I taught high school health for one year and middle school health for two years in Wisconsin.
Outside the classroom, I'm passionate about hockey—both coaching and playing—as well as golf.
I'm looking forward to collaborating with all of you!
