I am excited to join the Xavier Team this year as a part time English teacher. I finished my education at UW-Oshkosh after raising my children, and taught English at Menasha High School for seven years until I decided to teach part time.

My husband Dan and I are the parents of five adult children (Matt, Adam, Luke, Ben, and Hannah), and seven grandchildren (Samuel, Noah, Joshua, Micah, Lydia, Abigail, and Evelyn), with one more on the way. We travel to Minneapolis to visit them, since three of our children have settled there. Dan and I also enjoy biking, walking, kayaking, and hosting/participating in a weekly Bible Study. I am also a passionate reader, writer, and runner.

I will be teaching English 12, Block One during Term 1, and will be available before school by appointment.
