Educational Background

 

My passion for education has been a lifelong journey, starting with my Bachelor's Degree in Education from Viterbo University, where I majored in Elementary Education and minored in Early Childhood Education. Recently, I completed my master’s program at UW-Stevens Point, earning a Master of Science in Education along with my Special Education Licensure. This advanced training has deepened my ability to meet the diverse needs of my students, empowering me to provide even more personalized and effective support in the classroom.

Family is incredibly important to me. I love spending time with my grown children, especially during our family meals, which are a meaningful tradition for us. We also enjoy camping throughout Wisconsin year-round, creating special memories together, even though we camp a bit less in the winter due to the challenges of dry camping. In addition to time with my children, I also cherish quality moments with my parents, who live some distance away. Though we can’t see each other as often as we’d like, we make the most of the time we have together, and it’s always meaningful.

MY CLASSROOM

I truly love teaching at Blessed Sacrament! Every day brings new opportunities to inspire my students and create a positive learning environment. My goal is to instill in each child the same passion for learning that I carry with me, and I want them to leave my classroom excited about what they have accomplished and eager for what comes next.


We begin each day by gathering in prayer, grounding ourselves in faith and reflection. This quiet time helps set the tone for a day filled with both academic and personal growth. I believe that clear learning targets are essential for guiding students toward success, so we focus on specific goals that challenge and motivate them.


Kindness and respect are foundational values in our classroom. I encourage students to not only be respectful to me and their peers but also to themselves—learning how to be patient and understanding during the process of growth.


Recognizing that every child learns differently, I use a variety of teaching strategies to ensure each student's individual needs are met. Whether it's through group work, hands-on activities, or tailored instruction, my aim is to reach every learner where they are and help them thrive.


Ultimately, my mission is to help your child grow into the best version of themselves—academically, socially, and spiritually. Watching them gain confidence, develop new skills, and grow in character is the most rewarding part of my job.
