I am from New Castle Indiana and graduated from New Castle Chrysler High School in 2008. During high school I was secretary of student government, a member of show choir, and worked at Mancino's Pizza. Every summer from 7th grade to senior year I detasseled corn. After high school I made the big 20 mile move to Muncie where I attended Ball State University. While going to Ball State I was an active member of Cardinal Association of Teacher of Science and Phi Mu Sorority. I graduated in December of 2012 with a degree in Biology Education. I have taught at Southwestern for the past two years and have really enjoyed my time here. Last year I started as the science academic team coach.
