I have been an Aggie since 2010 and proud to now have my 3 young children attending school here! I grew up in the thumb and moved to this area in 2001 to attend college at CMU. I have a bachelors in Secondary Education and a Master's degree in Counseling, both from Central. Prior to my time at Beal I worked as a counselor at Vestaburg High School. Outside of school I love to go camping with my family and travel. I also love coffee, reading, and watching movies.
