Biography

After I earned a BS in Sociology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, I continued my education here at the University of Minnesota in Early Childhood Education and later earned an M. Ed.  I teach 3 – 5-year-olds at the Shirley G. Moore Laboratory School as well as mentor teacher candidates in the Early Childhood Education program.  My teaching philosophy is based on constructivist and sociocultural theories.
