I grew up in a very small town in North Dakota. I know the beauty, influence, support that small communities bring to a school and I feel so fortunate to be a part of one, again. Now, My husband, Mike, and I live in Barnum with our two sons. We absolutely LOVE living in northern Minnesota and being outdoors, especially fishing!
I am a graduate of the University of Minnesota - Duluth (Elementary Education & Mathematics) This year will be my 8th year teaching! My teaching experience includes Level IV EBD, kindergarten, 4th grade, and K-12 Math intervention - both in rural and urban settings. I am so excited to be at Willow River teaching 5th and 6th grade Math this year!
I am passionate about the power of a growth mindset and love that this reflects in my classroom and work I do with students. I truly believe that everyone can learn Math to high levels. Did you know research shows that there is actually no such thing as a "math" brain?!
It's going to be such a great year!
