3rd Grade
Professional Biography: 

I attended Christian schools from Kindergarten-12th grade before going to Calvin College. I received a degree first in Recreation with an emphasis in Youth Ministry and worked in Youth Ministry for 2 1/2 years before feeling God’s calling to return to school to get a teaching certificate. After attending Calvin for the second time, I received my teaching certificate and began working here at Ada Christian as a long-term sub, in the resource room, and finally as 3rd grade teacher.

Personal Biography: 

My husband, Curt, and I are members of Seymour Christian Reformed Church. He is a Middle School Social Studies teacher at Legacy Christian School. We have an almost 2-year old (born on Leap Day!) and are enjoying all the things that come with being a parent.
I enjoy reading, playing games, being with friends and family, and traveling as time allows.

Faith Statement: 

I love teaching in a place that allows me to share my faith with my students. Being a Christian does and should touch all areas of life, so teaching in a Christian school allows me to integrate faith into all areas of my teaching. I have found that Ada Christian is a wonderful place both for talking about and modeling my faith.
