This is my 12th Year @ Verndale! I know the pride this school takes in learning and I know your little Wise Owl is up for the challenge and the fun we’ll have along the way!!
I graduated from MSUM in Moorhead with a Bachelor Degree in Early Childhood Education. I also received my Masters in Curriculum and Instruction with an emphasis in Literacy.
I have been married to my wonderful husband, Keith, for 14 years, and we have three amazing little girls, Britta (12), Aubree (10) and Tatum (8). We enjoy being by the river, going for ranger rides, hiking, campfires, reading & baking!!
