I live in Howell with My husband, Tim. I have two bonus kids, Kaelin and Owen. In my spare time you can find me shooting archery or on the golf course. I love reading, being outside and spending time with family. I have been working in the field of Early Childhood for 19 years. I started my first job in high school and fell in love. From that moment on I knew my passion was in Early Childhood. I look forward to getting to know your family!
