Education: I began teaching in Black Creek in 2006. Prior to working here I taught for several months in the Wausau School District. I graduated from the University of Wisconsin Stevens Point with a degree in Elementary Education. I received my Master's degree from Walden University in Elementary Reading and Literacy.
Background: I grew up in Black Creek and attended this very school as a child. It has been a truly wonderful experience having the opportunity to give back to the community that provided me with so much. I have taught both first and second grades. I love both grades equally and embrace the opportunities each provides. I look forward to working with new students and getting to know more families each year!
Educational Mission: Reading has always been a passion of mine and I embrace the opportunities I have as a teacher to instill the love of reading and learning with my students. It is my goal to create close connections with each of my students and build a strong classroom community. These connections serve as the foundation for building self-esteem and confidence in young learners. Watching my students succeed and sharing in their excitement is the motivation behind my career.
