About Me

This is my tenth year teaching. I graduated with my undergraduate degree from the University of Akron in 2011 and have two teaching licenses in Special Education. I graduated from Ball State University in 2017 with a Masters degree in Applied Behavior Analysis with an emphasis on Autism Spectrum Disorder. I have spent the last nine years as an Intervention Specialist in a preschool setting. I am excited for this new professional adventure at Waterloo!

This is a picture of my beautiful family. My husband Jared and I have been married ten years this fall. We have two daughters who are eight and six years old. They are in their first year of cheerleading and that is keeping us very busy! We also have a fluffy dog named Maui and a snuggly cat named Maria. My husband and daughters LOVE the outdoors but I refer to myself as an "indoorsy" person. I love to spend my time reading books (especially mystery), taking naps, and making things with my Cricut!
