I grew up outside of Linneus, MO.  I lived on a farm with lots of different animals that I helped raised.  I love being on the farm and being around my cows.  I graduated from Meadville, MO in 2006.

I went to Missouri Western State University in Saint Joseph, MO.  I got my Elementary Education degree along with an Early Childhood Education degree.  I graduated from there December 2010.  When I graduated I had to move back to the farm to help out.

The beginning of 2012 I began substitute teaching at two small schools.  In November 2012 I was offered a job at Bucklin R-II to finish up the year as the third grade teacher.  After the year was over I was offered the Kindergarten position at Bucklin R-II where I have been since.  In August I will start my fifth year as a Kindergarten teacher and I absolutely love it!!  I live in Macon, Mo with my fiancé .

I have been to Canada twice for fly-in fishing!  It was so much fun.  I love to fish and be outside with nature.  The first time I went to Canada, they actually let me fly the plane!  Fly-in fishing is where the people who own the planes, fly you in to an area that has a cabin and boats.  The planes are five passenger planes that land on water. So it is just whoever came with you and nature.  It was an absolute fun experience of fishing and peace.  But if you don't like eating fish this probably wouldn't be a nice trip for you, because we ate fish at least once if not twice a day.  This is a picture of a cabin I stayed in.

I am hoping to get new and different ideas to expand my knowledge with technology.  My students are young and sometimes not the best with electronics.  So I do a lot of teaching and showing the students about technology.   I am also hoping to learn use what technology I have to its full potential .

In my personal life I use technology a lot.  I have a smart phone that I love to use when I am ever wondering about something that is happening. It is so handy to pick up the phone and google search something.  I also use a laptop a lot.  I started my masters in May and I feel like I am on it 24/7 now.  I also use both of these devices for ideas for cooking, decorating, school, and so much more.  I love looking at Pinterest.
In my professional life I use technology as well.  I have a Smartboard in my room that I try to take full advantage of in my teaching.  I also use my computer for lesson planning and coming up with fun activities for my kindergareners.
