ADDITIONAL BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION

Recently married, so now navigating life as a teacher, wife, dog mom, and budgeting queen. It's a wild ride and I'm glad I get to live it! Currently all content posted is what I've made for my classroom on programs from Microsoft Office. In the future, I'd love to start branching out to use other programs to create more visually captivating resources, but as a full time teacher, I have to spend my time wisely. I hope you find my products useful for your classroom and engaging for your students. Keep checking back, as I continue to edit and add new content!
