BIOGRAPHY:

• I grew up in a small town outside of Kansas City, MO, called Excelsior Springs. My family still lives there or in the area.
• I attended Northwest Missouri State University (see link below) and received a bachelors degree in Zoology and Chemistry. I received a masters degree in Science Education.
• Currently, I'm teaching in Colorado Springs, CO, and loving every minute of it! I also coach varsity football and freshmen baseball. I wouldn't trade this life for the world!
• In my free time, I spend most of it outside. I love to hike, camp, mountain bike, road bike, rock climb, and ski! As long as I'm outside, I'm usually good!
