I am a Pana native and an SHS alum. I went to Illinois State University and graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Middle Level Education. I previously worked at the Pana Junior High School as a 6th-8th grade special education teacher for eight years. I am now in my second year with SHS and it feels like home. It is such a blessing to be able to openly talk about my faith and pray with students for loved ones and pray over issues that weigh on them. 

 

I am married and have three fantastic girls that all attend Sacred Heart School. I love spending time with my family, reading, and listening to music. My favorite subjects to teach are reading and social studies, especially the Revolutionary War.
