Grades 7-8
	I graduated from Dr. Martin Luther College with a B.A. degree in 1970. I have been a teacher for 38 years. I taught grades 5-8 in Los Angeles for my first year. The rest of my teaching ministry has been here at Resurrection Lutheran School.

I enjoy playing the piano and teaching art. At Resurrection, I play the organ for church services. Outside of school, I enjoy traveling, biking, inline skating, and going to plays and concerts.

I was born in Winona, MN and grew up on a farm in western Wisconsin. I lived in New Ulm from 1965 to 1968 and again from 1969 to 1971.

I have a brother who is a pastor in Illinois and a sister who teaches in Denver. My Mom (age 97) is living in Rochester now where I can attend to her needs, finances, and special care.
