I started my teaching career in District 200 in 1996.  I began at Lowell Elementary School as a Kindergarten teacher.  I have taught Kindergarten, first and second grades and also served as the Library Learning Center Director at Washington. This is my tenth year teaching All Day Kindergarten!  When I am not busy in the classroom teaching, I attend my kids' various sporting events or school activities.  I love spending time reading and gardening too!
