My degree in resource management, biology and environmental education was put to use at Boscobel High School where I was hired late in the first quarter for a physical science/biology position. I stayed there for two years before working on a health degree/license at UW-Madison.

In 1983, I was hired to teach biology and sixth grade science in West Germany at the Frankfurt International School. I loved the school, children and the adventure working in Central Europe provided. I stayed well beyond my 2-year contract and returned home in 1991 to work on a master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction, Science Education at UW-Madison.

During my graduate program, I worked as a teaching assistant supervising student teachers in secondary science. After moving to Oshkosh, I worked in a similar capacity and also taught environmental education for the Biology department as well as elementary science methods in the C & I department. For 3 years, I directed the CAPP Program for the College of Letters and Science. In1999, I was hired as the Director of Field Experience, where I currently continue to serve the college.

I have been an employee of UW Oshkosh since 2001. I started in the Field Experience Office in May 2010. I am happy to be able to work with students and enjoy seeing them advance throughout their college career. This position gives me the experience to find students a placement in the field they will be teaching.

I received my bachelor’s in economics with a minor in business administration from UW Oshkosh.

In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my daughters, traveling and being outdoors. I treasure all the memories I make with my family.
