About Me
I was born and raised in Sioux Falls, SD, and that is where I am raising my family! I have a family of 5 (6 if you include the dog) which includes my husband, my daughters Heaven and Kaelyn, and my son Callan. We have 1 dog named Duke who is a black lab mix. As a family we enjoy camping, being outside, and going to NASCAR races and supporting the Hendrick Motorsport Drivers.
Favorite Verse
Jeremiah 29:11: “I know the plants that I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
I like this verse because even when things are rough and hard, it reminds me that God is for me, and if God is for me, then who can be against me? It is encouraging because at times, life is hard, but if you know that the creator of the universe is on your side, it helps you know that better days are to come!
First Job
My first job, outside being a paper delivery girl when I was a child, was working at Burger King.
Hobbies
I enjoy camping, hiking, swimming and just being outside! I also enjoy baking with my youngest daughter, and I am starting to really get into crocheting and knitting.
Bucket List Item
I would like to hike up behind a waterfall.
Favorite Place
Key Largo, FL
Person I’d Like to Meet
I would love to meet each and every one of my students face to face! I love getting to know you through your schoolwork, or even through blackboard sessions with the camera on, but I would love to be able to see you face to face, maybe play a game, and give you a high five! 🙂
