I graduated from Trinity Christian College in 1992 with an elementary education major and a special education minor. I married my husband John in 1992 and then taught 1st Grade at Lansing Christian School in Lansing, IL for 5 years until I had my first child. I have been a substitute teacher at HCS, have done recess duty and have taught Sunday school, GEMS and vacation bible school at my church. My life has always revolved around kids!

I grew up in the suburbs of Chicago and met my husband at Trinity Christian College. We married in 1992 and I taught 1st grade in IL while my husband went through medical school. We had our first child in 1997 and I became a stay at home mom. I have had a child in HCS since 2002…my youngest is currently in 5th grade. We enjoy boating and sports and I enjoy reading.

Teaching and being in and around the Christian school is always something that has been important to me and my husband. Listening to the stories and the prayers from my children has affirmed my decision to send them here. I love that talking about God and seeing him in all areas of our day to day life is the norm here at HCS and being able to be a part of that in children’s lives is priceless. I look forward to partnering with parents to raise children to see how they fit into Gods creation and his world.
