Personal Profile

I graduated from Pleasant Ridge High School in 1996.  After graduation, I attended Pittsburg State University and graduated with a Business Degree.  After being in the working world for a few years, I decided to become an elementary teacher and attended UMKC to obtain my teaching degree.  While working on my degree, I worked as a substitute teacher in Leavenworth County and as a PARA at Bradley Elementary.  After my second year of teaching, I earned my Masters from Baker University.  My first teaching job was here at PRES in 3rd grade.
