Originally from Indiana, I earned my bachelor's degree in Instrumental Music Education from Indiana University, where I studied flute as my primary instrument. Throughout my career, I've had the joy of teaching musicians of all ages in a variety of settings, including serving as a Graduate Assistant with the Department of Bands at Purdue University, Assistant Director of Bands at McCutcheon High School, K–5 General Music Teacher at Dakota Elementary, and now as the PreK–5 General Music Teacher at Pine Level Elementary School.
I am also a proud Air Force spouse and mom to two amazing children. Our family's military journey has taken us to six different states, and we're now excited to begin year 5 here in Alabama!
I'm grateful for the opportunity to share the joy of music with the students of Pine Level Elementary each day! I look forward to another wonderful year of singing, creating, learning, and making music together.
Go Bulldogs!
