Bio

*I graduated with a degree in Elementary Education from Carthage College, and also received my Masters Degree in Curriculum and Instruction from National Louis University, Evanston, IL.

*2023/2024 begins my 28th year of teaching, and my 6th at All Saints Catholic School.

*I have 3 sons: Riley (27), Zachary (26), and Casey (23). I also have 3 pets: my dog, Bacon, and 1 cat, Perch.

My boys and I are HUGE sports fans: GO BUCKS! GO BREWERS! GO PACKERS! GO BADGERS! GO CUBS! (yes, I grew up a Cubs fan, so they are still in my heart!)

As a Middle Schooler, I LOVED Nancy Drew and Agatha Christie books, and my passion for the mystery genre has carried over into my adulthood. My favorite authors are James Patterson, Janet Evanonich, John Sanford, John Grisham, Patricia Cornwell, and my new favorite - Charlie Donlea!

This is my dog, Bacon!
