I was born and raised in Cambridge and I graduated from Cambridge-Isanti High School.

I attended college at Iowa State University, the University of Wisconsin-River Falls and now St. Cloud State University for grad school.

This is my first year teaching at CIHS. I worked in public relations and media previously, but I did spend some time substitute teaching in C-I Schools as well.

I enjoy spending time with my fiance’, Eric, and my family, especially while spoiling my nephews as much as I possibly can.

I also enjoy being outside: Nordic walking, running, biking etc. I like a good warm day, but I love the fall season in Minnesota due to the colors, sweater weather, and apple and pumpkin treats.

Three words to describe myself: patient, grounded, and grateful.
