I am a Western Michigan University graduate. I have minors in Elementary education, integrated creative arts, math and science and have 18+hours post-Bachelors Degree. |
Experience
I have been teaching for over 23 years. My first teaching job was here at Saint Mary School! I began in a second/third grade split classroom, and since that time I have spent many years teaching in multi-aged or split classrooms. I have taught a variety of elementary grade levels, including fifteen years in the first through third grades. I have served as the division leader of both the PreK-Second grade and Third-Fifth grade divisions. I have actively served on School Improvement Teams, mentored new teachers, and served on Diocesan Committees. I have taught in two Catholic schools and a private progressive school. |
Bio
I was married at Saint Joseph Church in Kalamazoo twenty-nine years ago this fall. My husband and I have three children. My oldest son is a graduate of Saint Mary School, Kalamazoo and Hackett Catholic Prep. He is a graduate of Ferris State University and was married this past June to our new daughter-in-law, Stephanie. My daughter and youngest son are both graduates of Saint Monica School, Kalamazoo and Hackett Catholic Prep. They also attended Ferris State University and graduated this past May. My daughter is engaged, and we are looking forward to the wedding this fall!
We are parishioners here at Saint Mary Church. I am very excited to be back at Saint Mary School, and I am looking forward to getting to know your student and family! |
