This is my 8 year teaching at Silver Lake Elementary School. I taught sixth grade for seven years before moving to first grade.
I spent two years teaching in the Santa Fe Trail School district teaching at-risk reading and special education in the 5th-8th grade building. Prior to teaching, I spent a year working as a para professional at Silver Lake.
I married my husband in November 2017. We have two children, a 3 year old son and a daughter born in January 2021. Our third child is our labradoodle. I have one older brother who is a priest for the Kansas City Archdiocese.
When I am not teaching, I love being outside with my kids, if the weather is nice. I do not like sitting inside for very long.
