Hometown? I grew up mainly in Waverly, Kansas, but also spent eight years in Germany, two in Alabama, and several off and on in Massachusetts, as my father was in the military. I have traveled extensively and will incorporate those experiences into my teaching. Educational background? I received my high school education from Waverly High School, where I graduated in 1995 with honors as Honor Student, Salutatorian, and recipient of five academic, character, and leadership scholarships. I went on to Emporia State University and graduated in December of 1999 with honors from the Tri Beta Biological Society and a Bachelor of Science in Education (Biology Major, General Science Minor). Experience? I have previously taught biology and physical science at Meade High School in Meade, Kansas, but moved back to eastern Kansas due to my husband’s career. I have also worked as a curriculum coordinator, an administrative position, for a 21st Century Community Learning Center in Iola, KS called SAFE BASE. Both of these experiences deepened my passion for teaching and for helping students to grow. I have used my experience to work with grant writers in USD 365 in efforts to establish an after-school program, technology, and an at-risk program within this district. Other professional accomplishments: *Kansas Teacher of the Year 2007 - Regional Semi-finalist *Mentor Co-coordinator for USD #365 *Dept. Chair *MTSS Leadership Team - Building Co-chair *Co-author of two books: "Yes ! Can" and "Understanding Learning Styles" (both published in 2008). *Staff development consultant for Time to Teach and differentiated instruction. *UTeach Portfolio Evaluator for Apprentice Teachers, Univ. of Texas at Austin Future goals? I am a very goal-driven person. It is my objective to serve as a mentor and an academic guide to my students in hopes to make them successful independent thinkers. I will complete my masters degree in Teacher Leadership in the next few years. It is part of my oath to uphold the integrity and honor that comes with being an educator.
