I have been teaching in Wauwatosa since 2004, and I am also a graduate of Wauwatosa East High School. I attended the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee and graduated with a degree in History. During college, I played outfield for the UWM Panthers baseball team for two years upon transferring from Iowa Western Community College where I earned an Associates Degree in Criminal Justice. After attending UWM, I earned my Masters degree in education from Cardinal Stritch University.
