About MeI was born in Oxford, Nebraska and graduated high school from there in 1994. My father was a math teacher and coach, so I decided to follow his footsteps because I saw the positive influence he had on children and I wanted to experience the great joy of educating youth.
After that I went to college at the University of Nebraska where I graduated in 1999 with a Bachelor of Science in Secondary Mathematics Education. I enjoy spending time with my children, golfing, working in my lawn and being active. Like Ferris Bueller said, "Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in awhile, you could miss it." So I try to enjoy every waking minute. |
