TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I am a K-5 reading grade teacher who is passionate about creating routines and making teachers' lives more simplistic and fulfilling!

MY TEACHING STYLE

I like to keep it simple, structured, and (of course) very silly!

HONORS/AWARDS/SHINING TEACHER MOMENT

I graduated with my Bachelor's as Summa Cum Laude in the Honors College, and I pride myself in pursuing excellence, not perfection. I was Missouri's Southwest Regional Educator of the Year in 2023 and have been previously nominated for Teacher of the Year.

MY OWN EDUCATIONAL HISTORY

I have a Bachelor's in Elementary Education, a Master's in Literacy, and a Specialist's in Educational Leadership from Missouri State University.
