Welcome to the 2025-2026 school year!
I am excited to begin my 8th year in Stewartville! This year will be my 24th year of teaching and my 2nd year as the 6th Grade English/Language Arts Teacher. I earned my Elementary Education with a Specialty in Reading degree from Bemidji State University. In 2016, I completed my Masters degree in Gifted, Creative, and Talented Education from the University of St. Thomas.
My husband and I live in Rochester with our 16 year old son Alec and our 13 year old son Owen. Alec is a junior at Stewartville High School and Owen is a eighth grader at Stewartville Middle School this year. We enjoy spending time up in Nevis, Minnesota with our families and keeping busy with our cat Belle and our dog Tater Tot.
