I attended Eastern Illinois University and graduated in May 2008 with a Bachelors of Science Degree in Elementary Education.  I have been working in the Bradley Elementary School District since the fall of 2011. I spent my first two years in the district working as a reading RtI paraprofessional at Bradley West.  The following year I became a fourth grade teacher at West. During the same year I decided to go back to college to school to earn my Masters in Reading.  I earned my degree in August of 2014.  As of the fall of 2015, I became a third grade teacher.  I love third grade! When I am not teaching, I am at home enjoying my time with my family.
