Where do you live?
I live Stewartville with my husband, Ryan; my daughter, Emma; dog, Bella; and cat, Max.
Why did you become a teacher?
I love science! When I was in college I wanted to do large lakes research and went to Bemidji State University to become an Aquatic Biologist. After graduation I worked for the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR). As part of my job with the DNR; I had the opportunity to teach about fish and the environment at the Great Lakes Aquarium and knew that I wanted to teach as a career. I love helping students understand how amazing science can be and all the opportunities science has to offer.

What do you like to do when you’re not teaching?
