I grew up in the Des Moines area and I’m proud to be teaching for DMPS! I first graduated from the University of Northern Iowa with a Sociology Degree and then realized my true passion was in teaching. While working and taking evening classes, I earned my Elementary Education Degree and later a Master’s Degree from Upper Iowa University. I previously taught 3rd grade at Capitol View elementary, and then in 2019 I started teaching at Moulton. Outside of school I love biking, hiking, and spending time with my family. I look forward to another great year at Moulton!
