Welcome!  It is my first year at Prairie View and I'm excited to be here!  I previously taught Biology for 7 years in Crystal Lake Illinois before staying home with my own three children the past 6 years.  I have also spent my entire post college career coaching everything from high school to elementary age basketball, softball, volleyball, and soccer. 

A little bit about me personally...I was born and raised in IL.  I attended the University of Illinois for my bachelors in Human Nutrition, Rockford University for my Master of Arts in Teaching, and University of Northern IL for my health education endorsement.  I married my high school sweetheart and we have three wonderful children who are now all in elementary school in Lafayette. Our family enjoys skiing, hiking, camping, music, and sports/activities.
