Teaching is my Passion
Teaching English language arts and working with middle schoolers is a blast. Theatre is my my second love after teaching. I graduated from the University of Nebraska with majors in Elementary Education (K-8) and Consumer and Family Sciences with an emphasis in human development. I have a master of education degree from Doane College in Curriculum and Instruction. I have taught kindergarten, 1st and 2nd grade, a secondary positive attitudes class, ancient history, medieval history, American history and language arts in my career. I have been a drama coach and have been active in community theatre. This is my fourth year at Grand Island Public Schools.
My husband and myself love theatre, traveling, sports, reading and concerts. Yearly, we make a trip to New York City to see Broadway plays, museums and visit family. We love to travel in Europe to explore history and art. Spending time with our children and grandchildren is always a delight. We are avid sports fans following the Huskers and the Creighton Bluejays. Hiking, walking, bicycling and golf are my favorite outdoor activities along with gardening. Gourmet cooking is my way of relaxing with family and friends enjoying the fruits of my efforts.
