Hello and thank you for visiting my page! I have worked in education since 1998.  My first 13 years were as an administrative assistant and the rest have been as a teacher. I graduated with my Associates from Illinois Central College in 2005, my Bachelor's from Bradley University in 2012 and my Master's from Grand Canyon University in 2021. I am currently the PAES Lab teacher at Jamieson and I absolutely love it!  My students challenge me to learn, adapt and grow with them while meeting their specific needs.  

I have one grown son, Patrick, who I enjoy spending time with.  In my free time, I enjoy playing with my dog, Maci, arts & crafts, hiking, landscaping and spending time with family and friends. 

Education opens doors to the future!
