I earned my bachelor’s degree from Iowa State University in 2000 and my master’s degree from Buena Vista University in 2010. While I have spent the majority of my teaching career at Pella High School, my teaching career also took me to Mason City, Ames, Willmar, Minnesota, and Olivia, Minnesota. I currently teach English 9, Advanced Writing, and Communication Skills, a dual enrollment DMACC course.
Outside of school, I enjoy reading, traveling, home improvement projects, and spending time with family and friends.
