I am originally from Rugby, ND and moved to Minnesota for my undergrad and masters degrees.  I earned my B.A. at Concordia College in Moorhead, MN; my B.S. at Moorhead State University; and my M.S. at St. Cloud State University.   In my spare time I like to bake, read, watch movies, and travel.  

I have been a speech/language pathologist for 27 years, having worked in adult rehab, private practice, and public schools.  This is my 16th year working in the Mounds View school district, where I have worked at the elementary and early childhood levels.
