I feel so incredibly blessed to join the CELA family! My passion for teaching is to help students develop a strong foundation in reading skills. Also, it brings such joy to my heart to see the growth of students’ academically and personally throughout the whole year. I love that I can share Jesus with my students every day and am so grateful I can continue to do so at CELA.
I have been teaching for 18 years. I have taught in 4K, 5K, and mostly 1st grade, with one year in 5th and 6th grade, for Christian Choice Schools in Milwaukee. I am from Markesan, Wisconsin and most recently moved from Milwaukee to Hartland. I love living in Lake Country because it reminds me of home and I get to enjoy nature as much as possible. I love being outside, especially on fall sunny days, helping others, helping my sister on her farm, playing volleyball and spending time with family and friends.
“Teaching at CELA is very special. The families and students are the core of what makes CELA truly incredible. I am blessed to teach about Christ and Christian Values every day. And to see the students live out and apply what they have learned about each value is truly remarkable and a priceless part of a well-rounded education! The type of community of learners and leaders is evident from 3K to 8th grade. When an 8th grader greets and engages with younger students and serves as a role model not only in academics but leadership and character as well, that is something noticeably different about CELA! As a teacher, I could not ask for a better place to teach! From administration, to teachers, students and families, the support and community is amazing! Teaching at CELA has been a true blessing.”
