My Profile

BORN AND RAISED IN NORTHFIELD, MN, I ATTENDED NORTHFIELD HIGH SCHOOL AND SUBSEQUENTLY WENT ON TO MAJOR IN GERMAN AND ENGLISH LANGUAGE AT ST. OLAF COLLEGE. AFTER GRADUATING IN 2011, MY PASSION FOR LANGUAGE TOOK ME TO AUSTRIA, WHERE I COMPLETED TWO YEARS AS AN ENGLISH LANGUAGE TEACHING ASSISTANT FOR THE FULBRIGHT ASSOCIATION. 

I AM CURRENTLY WORKING ON MY TEACHING LICENSE AND MASTERS OF EDUCATION FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA IN ESL AND GERMAN LANGUAGE.

I HOPE TO BRING MY EXCITEMENT FOR BOTH THE ENGLISH AND GERMAN LANGUAGE INTO THE CLASSROOM AS WELL AS MY FASCINATION WITH GERMAN DIALECTS AND CULTURES.
