I have been a proud Lincoln Lancer since 2007. I earned my bachelor's degree in English from Colorado State University, and my master's degree in literacy from the University of Northern Colorado. Reading is essential to my life, and I love sharing my love of reading and stories with students!  I am lucky to be a part of students learning and growing during these important and fun middle school years! In addition to teaching, I am Lincoln's Gifted and Talented coordinator and the drama club sponsor. Outside of school, I can be found reading, dancing (ballet), or spending time with my husband and our two grown children when they are available.
