A native of the Chicago suburbs, I have been living in the city for six years.  I went to college at the University of Puget Sound all the way out in Tacoma, Washington where I studied natural science, sociology, and education.  I came back home to Chicago and attended Northwestern University where I completed my masters in learning disabilities.  This year marks the sixth school year I have been teaching at Jahn and I am so happy to be co-teaching in 3rd and 4th grade.  I am working on continuing my education at DePaul University, working towards a principal endorsement and a doctorate in educational leadership.  Outside of Jahn, I love to listen to music, travel, and play with my dog, Poe.
