Welcome to Fifth Grade! I have been teaching in St. Paul Public Schools for 8 years! Before coming to St. Paul Schools, I taught at several other school districts in the Twin Cities area.  My grade-level teaching experience over the past 23 years spans all elementary grade levels 1-5.

In addition to teaching 5th grade, I volunteer in my church and in my community.

I live in Coon Rapids, MN with my daughter, my granddaughter and grandson.  In my spare time I enjoy traveling, motorcycle riding, reading and spending time with family and friends.
