Slinger High School
Slinger, Wisconsin

I am heading into my 29th year of teaching English at Slinger High School. I served as the Yearbook Adviser for 25 years, and as the Student Council Adviser for the past eight years. My service-learning experience has earned me the State Superintendent's Service-Learning Award, a Herb Kohl Teacher Excellence Award, a two-time Teacher of the Year Award, and the Milwaukee Brewers Grand Slam Teacher of the Month. My greatest passion is serving the community, and for years I have organized a Fall Yard Cleanup, Senior Citizen Dinner, Santa Sitters, served meals for the homeless at Milwaukee Rescue Mission, planned a back to school festival, and I am a charter member for Slinger Kiwanis Club. I teach American Literature, College Writing, and World Literature, and I am an adjunct for UW Oshkosh's CAPP dual-college credit program. I am married and have two adult children who work in health care.
