I am originally from Fargo, North Dakota, and graduated with a Social Studies degree from Minnesota State University, Moorhead (GO DRAGONS!) in 2003. I have called San Antonio home for the past seventeen years, and don't ever expect to move back to the "frozen tundra" of North Dakota. This is my fifteenth year at MacArthur, 12th year teaching AP World History, and 3rd year teaching AP European History.  I am the proud mother of a 12 year old boy, Jackson, and his 10 year old little sister Madeline. Away from school my interests include DIY - especially refurnishing furniture and paper crafting, football Sundays, reading and spending time with my family.
