I grew up in Minot, and have lived here all of my life. I have wanted to be a teacher ever since I was in the 1st grade. I attended Minot State University and graduated in 2007 with a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education along with Reading and Kindergarten credentials. I finished up my Masters degree in Early Childhood Education in 2012. My husband Chris and I have two sons, Grady who is 5 and Kanon who is 2 1/2. They both keep us very busy! Grady loves being a big brother! I have taught 2 years of first grade, and now this is my seventh year in Kindergarten. Kindergarten is a very busy world, but I love it!!
