Background and Interests:
I have worked with CESA #5 since January of 1996. Currently, I am the Birth to 3 RESource Facilitator for the Northeast Region as well as the Transition Project Coordinator for the State Improvement Grant (SIG). With RESource, I provide training and technical assistance to the 17 counties in the NE region. My SIG project focuses on improving early transitions across the state; from Birth to 3 to other community services, as well as the transition into Kindergarten. Before beginning with RESource, I worked as a B-3 interventionist in a variety of counties; serving families as both a teacher and service coordinator. I received my education in Early Childhood Special Education at the University of Wisconsin Eau Claire.
Personally, I live in Oshkosh with my husband, daughter, and son. In addition to my career and family, I teach Sunday school for 2-4 year olds and lead a Girl Scout troop. I enjoy biking, camping, gardening, and scrap booking.
