I received my Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education and Special Education and a Master's Degree in Educational Leadership. Since graduation, I have taught and lead schools in South Dakota, Alaska, and Wyoming. While I support a broad range of learners, I am most passionate about elementary age students. In my experience helping struggling students reach goals and gain confidence makes an incredible impact on their entire educational career. I am passionate about the role of education, believing it to be absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life. In my spare time, I enjoy gardening, walking my dogs, traveling and reading.
