Born and raised in the Flint Hills of Kansas and a proud graduate of Kansas State University, I have been at JHS for four years. Married for more than 30 years to my husband, Randy, we're the parents of three married children. Our son, Todd and his wife, Sonder currently live in the Kansas City area and are both graduates of KSU; and are the parents of our amazing granddaughter, Clara; Megan and her husband, Adam, are both KSU graduates and currently live in Colorado Springs, CO; and our youngest, Bethany, an Iowa State graduate, and her husband, Evan, a graduate of Baylor, live in Durham, North Carolina.
My main role at JHS is to advise the student publications and online edition, and to get the next staff members trained by teaching Journalism 1 & 2.
