I grew up just southeast of Columbus in Lancaster, Ohio, and graduated from Lancaster High School, the home of the Golden Gales! I then received my undergraduate degree at Ohio University and my master's degree from Ashland University. I have continued my education through coursework at Otterbein.

 

I have two daughters, Katy and Brooke who attend New Albany Schools.  Brooke will be an 8th grader at NAMS and enjoys swimming, running, and cheerleading. Katy will begin her Freshman year at NAHS and has interests in art and theater. We love animals and have two long-haired chihuahuas and two hamsters. I love sharing stories about them with my students. In my spare time, I love spending time with family and friends, hiking, reading, and listening to music. 

 

I am looking forward to another great year!
