I am an educator who started at Lane School as an instructional aide after graduating from Illinois State University in 2010 with a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education. After a year as an aide, I have worked at Stony Creek, Lane, and Prairie Jr. High for a handful of years at each location.

My passions are technology, gardening, woodworking, and movies. The students in my classroom are encouraged to find their passions and explore them. My mission as a PJH Social Studies teacher is to allow space for kids to find their voices and fight for their passions and opinions. We work on supporting our ideas with facts and sifting through world topics with a crticial eye.
