Education: I attended SIU-E from 1996-2000 and recieved a Bachelor's Degree in Mathematics with a certificate in secondary education. I recently finished my Master's Degree at Lindenwood University in Educational Technology.
Personal: I am a family oriented person and consider several of my friends as family. I have 1 sister and 3 brothers, 10 nieces and nephews, and 7 great-nieces and nephews. I also have 4 God-children who are very important to me. My boyfriend and I have been dating since 2011 and are looking to get married in the not-to-distant future. (Update: Wedding date is October 21st, 2017!) I love to travel and have been to many of the continental states as well as Mexico, the Bahamas, and Ecuador. I do not have any children, but have 1 very spoiled dog.

Professional Resume: In the summer of 2000, I got my first job teaching 8th grade math at Rockwood South Middle School. In 2001, I moved on to high school and taught Algebra, Geometry, Statistics, and Discrete Math at Parkway North High School for 2 years. From 2003 until 2009, I taught several math subjects at Hazelwood East High School, becoming involved in many professional committees, such as the High School Reform Committee and also coached Cheerleading for 5 years. After moving to Illinois, I found myself subbing in the Waterloo and Valmeyer School Districts for a year until I found a job as a bookkeeper/auditor at the Monroe County Treasurer's Office. Missing teaching, I moved back closer to St. Louis and now live in Columbia, Illinois and have been teaching Algebra 1, Algebra 2, and College Prep Algebra at Hazelwood West High School since 2014.
