Teaching is an absolute passion of mine! I am married to my wonderful husband, Clint.  We have three boys!  Cameron is a senior at Wichita State, Braden is 20, and Carson is a Junior at De Soto High School. All my boys have grown up in the De Soto School District, and I love teaching here. When my family is not keeping me busy, I enjoy going to movies, playing board games, and reading.

I grew up here in KC and graduated from Shawnee Mission Northwest. In 1996, I graduated from Graceland College with an Accounting and Business degree. After working at Sprint for 5 years, I quit to stay home with my children. I taught at Gymboree Play & Music for 12 years. I decided that a teacher is truly what I was meant to be, so I went back to school. I earned my Master’s in Teaching at Avila. This is my ninth year teaching at Horizon. I am looking forward to a wonderful year.

  Hello, everyone! I've had the privilege of teaching amazing Horizon Tigers since it opened. It is such a grrrreat school with dedicated staff and amazing families!

      I grew up near Wichita, where most of my own family still lives. I went to Emporia State for my bachelor’s degree in teaching & spent summers at Wichita State getting my master’s. I taught first & second grade in Derby for 15 years and have been in the KC area since 2005. I got married three years ago and am blessed to have three sweet bonus daughters and their families. 

      This is my 34th year of teaching, and I love learning new things while also using the tried & true. In this time, I've been able to know & work with about 700 children and their families... so here's to 725! It's going to be an incredible year of growth, changes, and experiences! Go Tigers!!!
