I grew up knowing I wanted to be in education, from teaching all the neighborhood kids in my basement as a child, to getting my teaching degree from the University of Northern Iowa and beginning my career with the Omaha Public Schools as a student teacher in 1994.  I started teaching junior high at McMillan Magnet Center in 1995 as a 7^th and 8^th grade math teacher and the Magnet Coordinator, as well as working on my Master’s Degree in Educational Administration.  In 2005, I moved back to the elementary school scene as a Magnet Facilitator, an Assistant Principal and then an Elementary Principal.  As the principal at Sherman Elementary, I have come full circle, serving the children and parents (some I once had as students!) of the Sherman Community.   I believe all children can learn and serve the students, staff and families at Sherman by building relationships and working to provide a safe, productive learning environment every day.   I am extremely proud to lead the Sherman Shark family!
