I have a bachelor's degree in anthropology and a master's in curriculum and instruction: early childhood education from UNO. Before coming to SEAS, I taught PK at LaPetit Kindergarten. I started teaching kindergarten at St. Elizabeth when the school opened in 1984. I have also been a dancing teacher, swim instructor, Girl Scout and Cub Scout leader, and day camp counselor. I've been married to the love of my life for more than 50 years, and together we have four children and 19 grandchildren. I love teaching kindergarten because their world is so innocent and honest. It's a thrill to be teaching the children of my former students. I love being part of the SEAS family, and can't imagine being anywhere else!
