Roosevelt Middle School

I am very excited about the upcoming year at RMS…and I know your student and I will do great things together.

 

I am 38 years old and originally from Chicago, IL… you will learn I am very passionate about my Chicago sports!  I went to the University of Minnesota and graduated in 2002 with a BA in Theater Arts.  I moved home to Chicago and tried to live the life of a working actor for 3 years before moving back to MN to pursue my teaching degree.  I graduated from St Cloud State University with my BS in Education and got started in Anoka Hennepin teaching at Blaine High School.

 

I taught 9^th-12^th grade during my 3.5 years at BHS and worked as the Technical Director and occasional Artistic Director for the BHS Theater program.  In 2010 I took over the Theater program at RMS and was introduced to the amazing staff and students here!  I came to teach full time at RMS in the fall of 2012 and have taught both 7^th and 8^th grade here.

 

I believe that my long road of life experience has led me to be a teacher that engages your student in a variety of ways.  I know exactly what is needed to be successful both here at RMS and at the HS level, as I taught that curriculum for almost 10 years.  I am an active and energetic teacher that can wait to start learning with your student!
