I am very excited to be at Chippewa Elementary! I have four years of teaching experience, most recently serving as the second grade teacher at Christ Our Savior Catholic School in South Holland, Illinois for three years. Prior to Christ Our Savior, I was a Spanish teacher at Longleaf Middle School in Columbia, South Carolina for one year. I began my teaching career as an instructional aide in the Reading Lab at Jonas Salk Elementary in Bolingbrook, Illinois. I graduated from Benedictine University with a bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education and an emphasis in Spanish. In my free time I enjoy spending time with my family, exercising, and crafting.
