Biography

I have enjoyed eleven years as an educator, 9 years in the classroom and 2 years in the library. My classroom experience included one year as a second grade teacher, and 8 years as a first grade teacher. During my experiences I have served on a variety of committees including Parent Involvement, Curriculum, Positive Behavior Intervention Systems, Reading Improvement and School Climate. As my resume indicates, I have a bachelor's degree and master's degree in Elementary Education. In addition, I am working on the Library and Information Sciences endorsement. During my career I have worked in both rural and metropolitan areas.

I have two young children, and am expecting another child this fall. I have been happily married for 7 years, and reside in Moline, Illinois. As a parent of future Moline School District students, I believe whole heartedly in supporting this school district, contributing to it's success and striving to provide the highest quality education for our students. I would be proud to identify myself as an educator in the Moline School District.
