I was born in Baraboo, Wisconsin, but only lived there for 6 weeks. Then, because my father was in the Army, we moved to Germany for 3 years. I have lived in many places and changed schools almost every year when I was young. When I was a freshman in high school, we went back to Germany for another 3 years. I attended the College of St. Catherine and earned a B.A. (summa cum laude), and attended St. Cloud State University and earned an M.S. (also summa cum laude). I LOVE TO LEARN!
-This is my 28th year teaching in St. Paul, and I love 5th graders. They get my humor!
-I enjoy kayaking, playing Pickleball, traveling and making extreme cakes like the Noah’s Ark for my grandson.
-I have 3 adult children, and 3 grandsons. We like to play boardgames and hang out at the lake.
-I am Lakota, Irish and German, so I can be stubborn! :)
