Hello scorpion family,

I am so excited to be joining Desert Edge this year, teaching American/Arizona History and Government/Economics. I am originally from the Northwest Chicago suburbs, although I mainly grew up in Eastern Iowa. I graduated from Iowa State with my Bachelors of Arts in Political Science and teaching credential. After graduating, I moved to Arizona and have been teaching in the West Valley ever since. I began working on my Masters of Education in Literacy Education from University of Georgia online in the fall of 2019. I am coming to Desert Edge after four years teaching eighth grade in the Litchfield district. I am happy to be a part of this campus and look forward to a great school year!

Please let me know if you need help with anything!
