I am passionate about students and afterschool time! 

Dragon Explorers is funded by a 21st Community Learning Center Grant which is a US Department of Education grant.

Gateway School was very fortunate to receive this 5 year grant, but this is the final year of the Dragon Explorers unless we apply and receive another grant.

I grew up in the Midwest. I love to read and enjoy many writing genres. I love history, traveling, science and math. I am great at geography!

I have attended the University of Wisconsin and earned my Bachelor of Science from BSU. 

I love to see the look of understanding when a concept clicks with a student. I want to instill that love of learning and curiosity in kids so that they become lifelong learners in something they love.
