I was born and raised in Marshfield. I actually went to school in the building that I now teach in! There is nothing greater than to be able to follow in the footsteps of outstanding Marshfield educators! I currently live in Marshfield with my husband, our two year old daughter, and our wiener dog, Dugan. I graduated from MSU with my degree in Early Childhood Education and I am looking forward to my fifth year teaching first grade! |
