Personal
I grew up on our family farm near Stockville, NE. I graduated from Farnam High School, and went on to pursue an Elementary Education degree. I was offered the K-12 counseling job at Farnam Public School and I obtained my Master of Science Degree in K-12 School Counseling. The Eustis and Farnam school districts combined and I then became the K-12 Counselor at Eustis-Farnam Schools. In 2008-2009, I was hired at Gothenburg Public School as the Middle School Counselor. I have a passion for working for and with students! I love to help individuals find their “strengths,” to help, and try to make someone’s day better.
I enjoy sports, exercising, being outdoors, and scheming with my grandson. My husband and I have three adult sons, a daughter in law, and one grandson. We have a farm, and have a cow/calf operation.
