This is my seventh year at The Prairie School, my sixth as
Co-Chair of the English Department. During that time, I have had the pleasure of teaching every grade of Upper School English, including Film Studies, Poetry, and Short Story electives. I am a founding member of the C.L.A.S.S. program and the Editor of Mindscape.
Previously, I taught at Pius XI High School in Milwaukee (for ten years), Marquette University (for five years), and other institutions, including Waukesha County Technical College. I was a manager at the late Schwartz Bookshops on Water Street (now a Kinko's) and Downer Avenue (now Boswell Books). Before that, in undergrad, I was a biology major pursuing a career in biomedical engineering (I use the word "pursuing" lightly).

I am the 4th grade Educational Assistant at The Prairie School and have been for the past 5 years. I graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Parkside with a Bachelor's Degree in English. Currently, I am pursuing a license and Master's in Secondary Education from Alverno College and am student teaching this trimester in the Upper School for nine weeks under the direction of Mr. Inouye.
I enjoy singing, writing, bowling, and watching movies. My favorite books are Toni Morrison's Sula and the Hunger Games Trilogy.
