• In my free time I love to cook, read and spend time with my family.

Hello! I am the 8 Silver Resource teacher and the 8th Grade Instructional Language Arts teacher. This is my 10th year teaching and my 9th school year at MMS. I earned a Bachelors of Science in Special Education from Northern Illinois University in 2012, a Master's degree in Reading from Concordia University Chicago in 2017, and a Master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction with an emphasis in Technology from Concordia University in 2019.  I am licensed in K-12 Special Education and  as a K-12 Reading Specialist. I am the head coach for 8th grade Volleyball team. My favorite things to do outside of school are reading, riding my bike, and spending time with my family. My greatest goal for the students that I work with is by the time they graduate MMS, that they become advocates for their educational needs and advocate for what they need to be successful in the classroom and beyond.

I am looking forward to a GREAT year! 

Hello everyone! I am so excited to kick off this school year with you! I am the 8 Silver Science and Social Studies Teacher. 

I earned my Bachelors of Science in Middle Level Education from Illinois State University, with endorsements in science, social studies, and math.  

In my free time, I like to spend time outside hiking, biking, fishing, camping, kayaking, and playing tennis.  I also like to travel, workout, and paint. I learned to paddle board for the first time this summer! I also love to spend time with my family and friends. 

During the summers and on some weekends, you can find me in Chicago working for the United States Coast Guard Reserves. I work as a pollution investigator and facility inspector ensuring that our waterways, vessels, and facilities are  clean and safe.

Please do not hesitate to reach out. I am here to help. This year is going to be a great one!
