I am a 1990 graduate of Maquoketa High School, and completed the Human Services AA degree at NICC at Peosta in 2006.  I grew up in the parishes of South and North Garryowen in Bernard then moved to Otter Creek as a teen and remained at St Lawrence until 2001 when my family and I joined the Sacred Heart Parish.  

I have three children, Timothy, Michaela, and Logan, one grandson, Samuel, and two small rescue dogs from Miami, Maggie and Mimi. I have been engaged to Virgil Roling since 2014.  I previously enjoyed a 9 year employment at Maquoketa High School, where I have discovered that I love working with young people.  When I'm not at work, I enjoy spending time with my family and exploring outdoor adventures with the pups.
