Brief Bio: I am grateful to work in a school that I can share Jesus every day.  My relationship with my students is what I enjoy most about teaching.  I enjoy seeing growth in my students whether it is watching them learn a new concept or watching their character develop.  I believe that Social Studies is a subject that is easy to make fun.  I use simulations, group projects, and group activities to help students learn new material. Students write their own history every day and I enjoy helping them learn about the past as I help them prepare for the future.

My family is very important to me and I enjoy spending my free time with my husband and three boys.  I spend most of my evenings at sporting events cheering my sons and their teams on.
