A Little About Me

I graduated from Central Michigan University in December 2010 with a degree in Elementary Education.  I am a problem solver at heart which resulted in my love for Science and Math, thus why I chose those areas of study for my major and minor.  I am originally from Northville, Michigan but have been living in Mount Pleasant, Michigan for the last 6 years while attending CMU.  I have wanted to be a teacher ever since I was a little girl.  I am a very passionate and enthusiastic person when it comes to working with students and teaching.  I am well prepared and excited to have my own classroom.  I want to teach students not only what to learn, but how to learn as well.  Teaching students how to learn will inspire lifelong learning, a valuable trait every child has the ability to discover,  develop, and benefit from.  In my free time, I love going camping, reading, and traveling as much as possible.  During Michigan's wonderful winters, I enjoy snowboarding, but I am finding it difficult to make time to do so lately.  I am one of six children and spend as much time as I can with my family, niece, and nephews.
