Biography

One of my favorite things to do as a child was exploring God’s creation, whether it was in the woods behind our house or in the dunes near Lake Michigan. I graduated from Wheaton College with a BS in Biology and Secondary Education. I am forever grateful for my Wheaton experience and how it challenged me to grow deeper in my faith, and also led me to my husband, Matt! After graduating, I had the opportunity to teach in a variety of educational settings. I began my career teaching in Illinois and Florida, where I taught primarily middle school science in the public schools. I then took a break to stay at home with our growing family, and had the privilege of homeschooling my own four children for four years. I am thrilled to be at SCHS teaching science where I can pour into the students and share my love for God’s creation with them.

Faith Statement

I believe that God is the Creator of the universe, who brings order and purpose to all things. God’s infinite wisdom and love are evident in the beauty and complexity of creation, from the vastness of the cosmos to the intricacies of nature. My hope is that my students revel in God’s majestic creation as we study science together, and that they are challenged to grow in their faith.
