This is my 12th year as a social studies teacher at Hazelwood West Middle School. I began teaching in Hazelwood directly after completing my student teaching and can't imagine myself anywhere else! I teach 6th grade Ancient History, 8th grade American History, and Google 101. Each class will challenge students to learn new skills and content knowledge.

When I'm not teaching, I enjoy spending time with friends and family, including my two dogs, Indi and Finley. I try to travel as often as possible and it is a life goal of mine to visit 100 different countries. I only need to visit 94 more!
