I am entering my ninth year of teaching in a classroom setting. I taught 4 years as a 4th grade teacher at St. Francis of Assisi where I taught all subjects in a self-contained classroom. I spent one year as a teacher assistant in Clayton in grades 3 – 5. I taught one year at Our Lady of Providence teaching 6th, 7th, and 8th grade Math and Science. This is my 3rd year at Assumption where I have taught 4th, 5th, and 6th grade Math and English. This year I am teaching 3rd and 4th grades.
I directed a children’s choir for eight years at St. Dominic Savio Church and directed the Children’s Chorus at Assumption last year.

Personal
My husband, Phil, and I recently celebrated our twenty-first wedding anniversary. We have two children: Ellen (17) and Joe (12). We live in the area, so you just may see us at Dierberg’s, Bread Company, or Chevy’s.
