August 2024 begins my 29th year at McKeel.  I graduated from the University of Wisconsin in 1994 with a B.S. in Elementary Education and minor in Latin American Literature. I moved to Lakeland in 1995.  I have taught Math, Spanish, Integrated Research, ALPHA (Gifted), Beginning Programming Concepts, Middle and High School Robotics, Critical & Computational Thinking, Introduction to Information Technology, IT Systems and Applications, AP Computer Science Principles, and AP Computer Science A (Java).  I am currently certified to teach Spanish K-12, Elementary K-6, Computer Science K-12, Engineering & Technology Education 6-12, and I have endorsements for Gifted and Coaching. I have completed the Civics Seal of Excellence.  I serve as the contact for the Gifted program here at McKeel Academy. This year I will be teaching 

I'm very excited about all of the great things we will learn and accomplish this year!
