I grew up in Northern Kentucky and attended Notre Dame High School.  I graduated with a BA degree from the University of Evansville in 1986 and received my Masters degree from Indiana University.  I previously taught in the Indianapolis Public School system for 15 years, where I taught the 1st and 2nd grades. After marrying and having two kids I decided to come back "home."  I am now in my 19th year of teaching 2nd grade at Immaculate Heart of Mary School. 

I feel blessed to be teaching at IHM.  I was drawn to the teaching profession because I enjoy working with children.  It is exciting to introduce students to new worlds of information and to see them learn and grow in their academic and social skills. I am looking forward to a fantastic year of learning and growing with your child.
