I was reared in a christian home and saved at a young age. I graduated from Northwestern College in 2008 with a B.S in Educational Studies with an emphasis in Elementary Education and a music minor. Last year was my first year serving as the Kindergarten Readiness teacher. This year, in addition to my regular duties, I will be working as the yearbook advisor. Before coming to CLBS I had served as a substitute teacher for the school as well as several public school districts in the surrounding areas. Over the last nine years, I have worked with a variety of youth programs and ministries. In my spare time,  I own and operate the Sunrise Music Studio.
