I graduated from Indiana State University in 1998 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary/Middle Education.  Later I added Special Education to my license.  Throughout my 20 years of teaching experience, I have added a great deal more to my education in a multitude of categories.

I have taught Pre-K, 1st grade, 3rd grade, 5th grade, 6th/7th grade co-taught ELA & Math and 8th grade Social Studies.

My husband and I are from Indiana.  We have lived here since 2002.  We love the small town feel of Temple.  We have 3 beautiful children.  Our extended family also includes 2 dogs, 1 cat and 2 rabbits.
