I grew up in rural, central Illinois and moved to Chicago a little over 15 years ago. Influenced and inspired by my own teachers and family members who were teachers, I aspired to be a teacher from a young age. This is my 15th year teaching at Bateman Elementary School and my 16th year teaching. I have taught both 1st and 3rd grades in general education, inclusion, ESL, and bilingual classrooms. As a language learner and as the mother of three language learners, I am excited to be a part of the dual language program at Bateman.

​I live with my husband and three children, ages 1, 3, and 6 years old. I enjoy baking, reading with my children, and watching crime shows.
