Welcome to another exciting school year at Shakopee High School. Hello to my new students and to my returning students. I am a special educator in the field of Developmental Cognitive Disabilities. The classes I teach are geared to be paced at each student's different learning capabilities. I wake up each morning excited to see what the day will bring. I live in New Prague and am the proud parent of three grown children. My daughter RaeAnne is a marketing director in Minneapolis. My son Michael is a Heavy Duty Operator. My youngest son Thomas is going to start college to finish his 4 year degree. Family is an important part in my life also. I also work part time at the grocery store, Coborns, in the deli in New Prague. My philosophy in life is “To teach is to touch lives forever”. Live, Laugh, Love. I look forward to working with students and parents each and every year.
