I grew up outside of Oxford, Iowa on a farm. My parents, Ann and Bob, still live there today. I am the youngest of three. My brother, Ryan, is a police officer in Iowa City. My sister, Katie, is a vet tech in Oxford. Katie has a daughter named Hayden, who is four years old. She is my only niece but Katie is expecting another baby girl in November!!
I went to Clear Creek Amana High School in Tiffin. I ran track and cross country there. I graduated in 2004 and went on to Luther College in Decorah, Iowa. I really enjoyed my time at Luther!! I was a part of the cross country team there. I graduated from Luther in 2008 with a major in elementary education. I then spent one year as a long term substitute in a first grade classroom in North Liberty. You will be a part of my first "official" class!!
