About Me


Family picture during Thanksgiving Break!








This is my first year at Jackson Heights Elementary School.  I recently graduated from Kansas State University, even though I am a die hard KU fan.  I grew up in Smith Center, KS, which is located in North Central Kansas about 10 miles from the Nebraska border.  My father Don has been a middle school math and social studies teacher for 34 years, and my mother is a county extension agent.  My sister Calee is currently going to school at Fort Hays State University, majoring in Elementary Education as well. 
During high school I competed in a varied of athletics.  I was also part of Kays and Select Choir. 
 After high school I attended Kansas Wesleyan University on a basketball scholarship.  I spend 2 years in the basketball program before transfering to Kansas State University.
