I have worked in education for the past fifteen years, starting out as a Business Education teacher and then transitioning to a Mathematics teacher in my 3rd year.  I earned a Masters of Science in Mathematics in 2012 and have used that to enhance my career by teaching dual credit courses in Mathematics, Business Technology, and Computer Information Systems.

​

While teaching is the majority of my workload, I am also serve as the Schoolwide Positive Behavior Support District Coordinator. This research-based behavior model is the basis for the district's behavior plan and is a major part of the everyday life for the students. This position requires everything from designing signage to faculty instruction. All the physical items in the district being used at this point in time have been developed and created by me. I have also designed and implemented a digital reward economy for the junior high and high school, a model which I have taught to numerous other schools in Missouri.

​

My future goal is work with companies, schools, or other entities which intend to develop and present digital training. I believe my skills an educator will greatly enhance my ability to deliver content instruction while my computer skills will drive my creations into a high level of engagement from those who take part in the trainings.
