About Me

Born in Lincoln, but raised in Mead, Nebraska. I'm excited to be back in the city and getting to know the students and staff at Meadow Lane Elementary School! When I am not at school I enjoy travel, reading, board games, yard games, movies, and spending time with family and friends. 

I attended Doane College 2010-2014 and then lived and served for over two years in Guyana, South America with the United States Peace Corps. While living there I got to experience a mash-up of Carribbean, Hindu, and Amerindian (Indigenous peoples of Guyana) cultures! I have loved traveling and learning about other cultures, and I am ready and excited to use my experieces to benefit my classroom! I look forward to learning about even more countries and cultures through my students :)
