The 2021-22 school year is my eighth year working in the State College Area School District. I served as librarian for Lemont-Houserville in 2017-18, and became a STEM teacher for Spring Creek Elementary for two years. Getting kids excited about stories, books, and research through library instruction is my passion, and I am thrilled to have joined the Gray's Woods Wolf Pack as your librarian!
I grew up in Wisconsin, went to college in Minnesota, and before moving to Pennsylvania seven years ago, my husband and I lived in Minnesota, New York, Florida, Colorado and Illinois. In Illinois, we spent four years living in the heart of Chicago (Go Cubs!), where I worked as museum educator and staff trainer for Chicago Children's Museum, followed by nine years in Peoria, where I worked as an adjunct professor in the Theatre Department at Bradley University while focusing on raising three young children. I returned to school in 2012, earning a Masters of Library Science from University of Illinois, followed by a teaching certification from University of Pittsburgh and Penn State.
Outside of school, I can typically be found drinking coffee, listening to audiobooks, texting my college daughter, driving my high school sons to their activities, or watching funny TV shows with my family. We love music and theatre in our house, and we're excited we can attend some of those events safely again!
