I graduated Magna Cum Laude from Dakota Wesleyan University (Go Tigers!) in May 2012 with a major in Elementary Education and coaching endorsement in soccer. I was also a member of the women's soccer team, Future Teachers Organization (FTO), Phi Kappa Phi, and Pi Gamma Mu. I am in my 5th year of teaching; my first two years I taught 4th and 3rd grade at Winner Elementary in Winner, SD. Now I am in my third year at West Central at Humboldt Elementary in Humboldt, SD, teaching fifth grade.
