Education: B.A. in Biology and Economics from St. Olaf College; Teaching Certificate from Edgewood College, continuing education includes taking several Master's classes.
Experience: 20 years teaching (19 at BSS)! Additional work experience in biotechnology. Why I'm a teacher: I love kids. I love their insights, their creativity, the way they share and listen and their boundless energy. I love opening kids' eyes to new ideas, new books, and different perspectives. I enjoy nurturing the spark and desire for learning inside of them--for academics and for Jesus! The hours fly by when I'm with my students. Teaching can be an exhausting and busy job...and I wouldn't trade it for the world! Teaching is a journey; I feel blessed every day. More about me: Pete is my husband and we have two boys, Andrew and Jonah. We have a yellow lab named Sophie. We love to hike, mountain bike, and downhill ski as a family. We travel with or to see family quite a bit! |
