I grew up in Creston and graduated from Creston High School. I pursued a basketball career at Northwest Missouri State University, where I earned my degree in elementary and special education in May 2025. I moved to Pella to be close to my family, who have been here since July 2024. In my free time I enjoy spending time with friends, going on walks, and trying new coffee shops!
I am a huge competitor and love taking part in any sport. A huge part of my passion for teaching lies in seeing students and athletes achieve things they don’t think are possible. I am excited to be a part of such a rich culture and see where the Lord chooses to use me and my husband in Pella!
