I am excited to be teaching second grade again this year! It is my 5th year teaching 2nd grade and it’s my 13th year teaching at STS. I received my degree for elementary education from Loras College and my masters degree in reading from Northern Illinois University.
I love teaching 2nd grade! It is such a special year with the students receiving two sacraments: First Reconciliation and First Holy Communion. It is a privilege and a blessing to help prepare the students for these very special sacraments!
I live in Lake in the Hills with my husband Mark and our two children Max and Olivia (both graduates of STS). Max is a senior at Miami of Ohio and Olivia is a freshman at the University of South Carolina. When I am not teaching, I enjoy reading, gardening, and spending time with my family.
