About The Teacher
Where do I start? I am a 1989 graduate of Ross High School. I am so excited to be teaching at my alma mater! I participated in many activities while at Ross High (National Honor Society, Junior Class Treasurer, Marching Band,and Athletics). My track and field jersey was retired on May 31, 1989. I continued my athletic career at Miami University in Oxford on a Grant in Aid for Track and Field. I received All-MAC honors in 1992, placing 4th in the Shot Put. My career ended after an ACL tear to my right knee. Today, I am still currently in the top 25 all time throws in the shot put with a career best of 45' 2". I did my student teaching from a wheelchair because of the ACL tear! My first placement was at Elda Elementary with Mr.Fred Hibbs. Then I had surgery and did the second half of my student teaching at Harrison High School with Mrs. Kathy Swink. After college, I was married to Steve on December 18th,1993. He is a teacher at St.James Elementary School near North Bend. We have 4 children, Ryan (grade 7), Brady(grade 6), Emma (grade 3), and Gracelyn (grade 1). We live on 4 acres of land in rural Okeana, Ohio. We enjoy spending time together as a family. I have taught at several parochial schools, having left St.James Elementary to come to Ross. I have taught and coached at all levels from P-K to high school, and am currently the Varsity Volleyball coach and the Head Varsity and JV Track & Field Coach (Boys & Girls).

Mission
My mission is to make Physical Education a non-threatening experience for my high schoolers. Our curriculum involves sport themed units with an emphasis on lifetime activities. I want my students to give their best, and enjoy the units. They are also given ample opportunity to work at their pace, not one dictated by me.
