Biography; I am the 4th grade Science and Grammar Teacher this year. I have been teacher fourth grade for 12 years. This is my 5th year at Eden Park. Prior to fourth grade I taught first grade for one year and was a Director of a Preschool for 16 years.
I have a degree from Valparaiso University in Indiana and earned a Masters in Reading from Concordia University, Austin. I have live in Austin since 1992.
I am a midwestern girl at heart. I grew up in Chicago and also lived in Wisconsin. The Chicago Bears are still my favorite football team. Because my children went to UT, I am now an avid UT Longhorn fan and enjoy going to the games.
You can usually find me playing golf on a Sunday afternoon with my husband. I also love sitting on my deck outside reading a good mystery book.
I have 6 adult children, 4 of whom live in Austin.
My other favorite passion is spending time with my 6 grandchildren. I am so fortunate they live in Austin,
I enjoy teaching at Eden Park with an awesome team of teachers, and am so happy your scholar is part of our 4th grade team.
