Born and raised in a suburb of Chicago, Illinois, I graduated from one of the top private schools in the midwest, Taylor University, Upland, Indiana. It was there that I graduated with a Bachelors of Science degree in Elementary Education. Deciding to try something new, I moved out west shorty thereafter where I started off working part-time in the Coeur D'alene School District as a Math Remediation Specialist.
I am currently employed as a behavior consultant at ACES Communiy Services at the Coeur D'alene location.
