AUTOBIO:
I am originally from our neighboring State of Michigan. Immediately falling in love with Wisconsin, my husband and I ventured here for graduate school and have never left. Eight years later, we have enjoyed living in every corner of the state, and in between!
I have a Master of Public Health from UW-La Crosse, as well as an undergraduate degree in Psychology/Sociology. During graduate school, I was fortunate to collaborate with a leading research hospital to conduct a study that examined the relationship between injury/violence and birth outcome. My pride in this final product has only enhanced my already existing interest in research.
I am particularly dedicated to the health and wellness of children, including pregnancy, early childhood education & development, and parent education.
I have 10 years experience working with diverse families in education, health and social service settings. I have experience with non-profit agencies as a grant writer, teaching at early childhood centers, holding administrative and family service roles at Head Start, and creating multiple agency and community wide programs. I am honored to continue my work with Wisconsin families. My ultimate goal is to help families become healthier and more sustainable through education and empowerment.
I enjoy my large extended family, antiques, biking & hiking, anything British, live music, baking, mystery novels, gardening, camping and the Pack! I maintain a bucket list, which includes writing a children’s book, riding the Orient Express, learning to play the mandolin, backpacking in England/Ireland and spending my retirement lazily hanging out in my very own antique store!
My husband and I have a dog, Tux; a cat, Mr. Pebbles; and a rabbit, Deuce. We are excited to finally make our home in the Fox Valley region.
