I’m excited to be teaching 6th grade Language Arts at Jefferson since the fall of 2025. I grew up in Cedar Falls and graduated from Central College in December 2024 with a degree in Elementary Education and a reading endorsement. I also ran cross country and track at Central! My husband and I call Pella home, and we enjoy being active in our church community. I’m looking forward to getting to know students and their families, build strong connections, and create a positive, engaging learning environment. When I’m not teaching, I love traveling, going on walks, reading, and spending time with friends and family.
