While at Maquoketa High School, I taught General Science, Applied Physical Science and TAG (Talented and Gifted). I also taught Basic Chemistry through Clinton Community College.
In 1998 I started my second teaching position at Solon High School and feel fortunate to teach in such a progressive district and work with so many caring teachers. I mainly teach Earth, Space and Environmental Science (ESE) which is a required class for freshman students and the elective course Geology and Meteorology (Geo Meo). Sometimes I teach Scientific Inquiry and Zoology.
Since 2012 I have taken over the position of Science Fair Coordinator. If interested in being a science fair judge, let me know. We are always looking for people in science to encourage our students excitement for science.
I live in Tipton, Iowa with my family. We love being outside and visiting local fairs/amusement parks. I especially enjoy reading, jogging, and gardening.

Volleyball photo circa 1991. No we didn't wear spandex shorts! While at Hudson High School, I played on the volleyball, basketball, and tennis teams.
I also played the baritone saxophone in the band and sang alto for the chorus.
Favorite 80's movie: Pretty in Pink
80's music is my favorite Pandora station too.
