This is my 18th year of teaching and have taught 5th grade, kindergarten, and 3rd grade. I am a Jefferson City native and grew up attending Lawson myself! I graduated from Jefferson City High School in 2001. I went on to graduate with a degree in Elementary and Early Childhood Education in 2005 from Central Missouri State University. In May of 2005 I married my husband, Brent. We now have three beautiful daughters; Macy, Cloey, and Hadley. Macy is 14 and in 8th grade at TJ, Cloey is 12 and in 6th grade at TJ, and Hadley is 10 and in 5th grade at Lawson.
