For as long as I can remember, I have always wanted to be a teacher. I graduated from Elmhurst College with a bachelor's degree in Elementary Education and a minor in History in 2000. I received a master's in Curriculum and Instruction with an ELL endorsement from Concordia University in 2017, and a master's in the Illinois Principals Program in 2022. The academic year of 2022-2023 marks my seventeenth year teaching and serving the Lord. I am thankful to be starting my fifth year here at Trinity Lombard. One of my favorite Bible verses is Proverbs 3:5. "Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding."
