Most importantly I am a boymom of three amazing boys ages 22, 18, and 15.  I have been involved in education for 22 years, and I am in my 23rd year.  I was a private school principal for 2 years, an Instructional Coach/DAC/Para Inductionist for one year as well as the Assistant Principal at Prairie Elementary in Worthington for one year.  I am currently in my Fourth year as head principal at Hill and Brown Elementary Schools in Pipestone, Minnesota.  I have a preschool at the First Lutheran Church and also serve students at the Hutterite Colony.  Along with my principal duties I have the privilege of being the title coordinator, Homeless Liaison, and the Community Education Director at PAS.  I taught Health and Physical Education in both MS/HS, and Elementary each for 3 years, substitute taught for a total of 8 years (one year out of college and while home with my kids for 7 years) and coached gymnastics and track during my teaching years as well as during my college years.  I think it is safe to say that kids have always been my life and my passion!
