Hello! I live in Gainesville with my husband Ryan and our four very busy kids, Jarett, Kelsie, Luke and Jake. We spend a lot of time at the ballpark and basketball court!!  I enjoy sports, gardening, traveling, reading and spending time with my family and friends. This is my 15th year teaching first grade. I love all of my 'firsties'!

I graduated from Gainesville High School and later graduated from Missouri State University with my Bachelor Of Science in Education.
