FAMILY
I come from a family of five and am the oldest of three children. My father works for the state of South Dakota, and my mother is a 3rd grade teacher in Sioux Falls. My younger sister is attending the University of Sioux Falls and is majoring in criminal justice, psychology, and English. In her free time, she runs and studies for the LSAT (a BIG test she has to take to get into law school). My brother is currently a freshman at the University of South Dakota and has not decided on a major yet; he likes to ride his moped and lift weights in his free time. My family also has pet cat - Leo - who LOVES climbing trees and eating shredded cheese.
I am engaged to Mason, an awesome human being and my best friend! He is currently a middle school and high school special education teacher in Canistota, and he coaches cross country, girls basketball, and track as well. In our free time, we love to watch movies, travel, and get ice cream! We can't wait to get married next summer!

EDUCATION I grew up in Garretson, a small town of about 1,500 people, and graduated from Garretson High School in 2017. I then attended Dakota Wesleyan University, where I played soccer and softball while obtaining my education. I student taught here in the Mitchell Middle School with both Mrs. Hargreaves and Mrs. Pierson (two ROCKSTARS) and subbed in Mrs. Pierson's classroom during her maternity leave. I graduated from Dakota Wesleyan University in May 2021 with a Secondary English Education degree. I found my way back to the Mitchell Middle School, and this will be my third year in the classroom. I am also finishing up my master's degree at Dakota Wesleyan University and am excited to use my new knowledge in the classroom! |
FUN FACTS
I LOVE milk chocolate and Mountain Dew. I don't like onions, coffee, or black licorice. I know how to play the piano. I love exercising and especially enjoy lifting and hot yoga. I was a right defensive back on the Dakota Wesleyan soccer team. My family and I enjoy spending time in Okoboji, Iowa in the summer. Very rarely will you see me (in school) without a cardigan. |
