I entered the teaching field in 1997. I graduated from Central Michigan University. I began teaching right after college in the Chippewa Hills school district, a school system near CMU. After teaching in the Chippewa Hills school district for four years, my husband's job brought us to the Greater Lansing area. I was fortunate to begin teaching in Fowlerville during the fall of 2001. My career in Fowlerville began in 6th grade at Munn Middle School. After four years I moved into the fifth grade where I remain teaching today! I now also have my Master's Degree from Central Michigan University.
