Biography
I attended Christian
school K-12 and then went to college at Trinity Christian
(Palos Heights, IL), graduating in 1999 with a major in
Elementary Education, an endorsement in Sociology and
an emphasis in Language Arts and Science. While at college
I also played on the women’s basketball team. My
first job upon graduating was teaching Junior Kindergarten
at SJCS which I did for four years before moving to 1st
grade. I am looking forward to another great year!
Personal Biography
I grew up in Southern California, but
my family now lives in Ripon. I am the second of five
children and love spending time with them all! I enjoy
reading, running, riding my bike and doing things with
my friends when I am not working. I attend San Jose Christian
Reformed Church.
Christian Philosophy of Education
As an educator in a Christian school
I feel that it is a privilege and honor to be able to
share my love of Christ with my students. Teaching in
a Christian school allows me to show my students the complete
sovereignty of God in every aspect of life and to partner
with the home and church to educate the whole child that
God has created. Working together, we can lead children
to develop their gifts, talents and knowledge so they
can honor and praise God in their lives.
