I have had the pleasure of calling St. Louis my home since I was born. I moved away for college when I attended Missouri State University but came right back. This is my ninth year teaching at Avery Elementary. I spent the first five years teaching third grade, then moved to fifth grade for two years before coming back to third grade. I love coming to work each day and getting to see the kids grow and learn!

When I'm not at Avery I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, reading, running, watching TV, and traveling.
