When people ask, "So, what do you do?"; I always say, "I'm just a mom” however I play many
roles. I'm a child of God, a wife, a mom of three, a friend, a daughter, a sister, and somebody
who believes in the power of HIS Word, and that God has called each of US for something.
Each of us has a gift and talent and it should be shared, and that there is a time and a
purpose for everything.  I feel God called me back into teaching when my youngest daughter
Hope finished Kindergarten. 
I started volunteering at Holy Spirit School starting in 2010. In 2017, I joined as an aide in
preschool and in 2019 had my own classroom as a preschool teacher.
In 2017 while teaching preschool, I decided it was time to finish my degree. I received a
Bachelor’s Degree in Education and Special Education from the University of Wisconsin
Whitewater in the spring of 2022. I am certified to teach Early Childhood Education, Special
Education and Elementary Education through Third grade.
I find my greatest joy teaching children to love and care for one another, while building
friendships and learning about Jesus. I have a passion for helping children rise to their
greatest potential and to see themselves and one another as Jesus sees us.
I am married to my best friend and I have three children who are getting older right before my
eyes. It’s refreshing to teach our youth as I miss my own at this age.
Some of my favorite things to do in my spare time are going to our cottage, riding my bike,
running, reading, and most of all spending time my family and friends. My favorite place to be
is with my family. I look forward to working together with you and your child.
"I pray that God who gives you Hope, will Bless you with complete happiness and peace
because of your faith, and may the power the Holy spirit fill you with Hope." -Romans 15:13
