Hello! I graduated from Marquette University in 2004 with a double major of Communication Studies and Elementary Education. Right out of college, I was hired as the 5th grade teacher at Holy Spirit and taught here for five years. In 2010, I decided to stay home with my growing family, but have continued to sub in the building the last ten years. I am excited to be back "home" here teaching Religion to the 6th grade class.
My husband, Kyle, is a high school Special Ed teacher in Kaukauna and our three children attend Holy Spirit. As a family, we like traveling on road trips, gardening, and taking care of our backyard chickens on our suburban "farm".
I am a product of Catholic education literally my entire academic career--I attended St. Bernadette Elementary, St. Joe's Middle School, Xavier High School, and then a private university. I am a big believer in the importance and power of Catholic education in a child's life. I love Jesus and getting kids fired up about their faith through Christian music, Bible confidence, and treating others like Jesus would. We are looking forward to this school year together! Jesus, we trust in You!
