I am so happy to be at SMV, a fun fact about me is I am an alumnus of SMV (class of 2013)! After graduating from Marquette University with my bachelor's and master's in psychology, I worked with children on the autism spectrum as a behavior analyst but soon realized the classroom is where I am meant to be. This will be my 2nd year teaching and am currently in the process of becoming teacher certified through the state of Wisconsin. In my spare time I like to read, play pickleball, and spend time with friends and family. Let's have a wonderful year!

A bit about me; I have been teaching for over 25 years, most of them here at SMV!  My 2 daughters are alumni, I was married at St. Mary's and am a current parishioner.  A number of my extended family have also attended SMV.  Needless to say, I am a big fan of the school and parish community!  Throughout my teaching career I have been a teacher of grades 1-4 and 6-8 and this will be my 8th year teaching 4th grade. My favorite aspect of my job is how every day we are all learning and growing in knowledge and faith. Plus, there is never a dull moment! Prayers and humor can go a long way!
