I am one of four high school special education teachers at Warroad High School.  I am the case manager of students in 11th and 12th grade as well as the Work Experience and Transition Coordinator for special education and at-risk students.  I teach work experience and life skills classes, assist students with their schoolwork, help students to reach their IEP goals, and help them transition into the next stage of their life whether it be attending college, starting a job, or getting ready to live independently and successfully as an adult. 

I am married with no children.  I am active in my church and community.  I have attended several missions trips to other countries, the most recent to Ghana, Africa this past summer.  While on those trips, I have had the chance to teach in schools.  I feel these opportunities have helped me to become a better teacher by giving me a more accurate understanding of children and teens.

As a teacher, it is my dream to see every child reach their full potential and find their unique purpose in this world.  I believe every child has a purpose.  It is my hope that I will help them achieve this purpose.
