reading, running, teaching, writing

I have been teaching middle school since 2003. I have taught Language Arts, Social Studies, Math and Science.















I graduated from Drake University with a bachelors degree in Elementary Education in 2003. I hold endorsements in coaching, art, health, and middle school education. I returned to Drake University and graduated with a masters degree in Education Leadership in 2007.















I am a wife and mother of two children, Cory and Amber. My family keeps me grounded; they help me remember what's truly important in life.
