In August of 2018, I will begin my 16th year of teaching. It will be my fifth year at Willow Grove. I taught for eleven years in Missouri before I moved to Illinois in 2012.
My husband Rich and I have been married since August of 2012, and we have two girls. Elli is fourteen and in the 9th grade at Okawville High School. She loves to read and play sports. Kree is five and going to kindergarten this year. She enjoys working on the farm with her dad and playing with our dog, RC.
In my free time, I enjoy reading, helping my husband on the farm, and cheering for Elli at her games.
I take pride in my job as a teacher. I work to provide meaningful and memorable experiences for my students. I hope that you feel safe and challenged in my classroom. Please let me know what I can do to help make this year successful!
