I am a native born Hoosier. This is a person who was born in the state of Indiana. I grew up in Evansville, Indiana which is in southwestern Indiana along the Ohio River.
I graduated from the University of Evansville with a B.A. in Elementary Education. After marrying, my husband and I moved to Lafayette, Indiana (about 200 miles north of Evansville). Here, I graduated from Purdue University with an M.S. in Elementary Education.
In 2005, I got a job at Saddlewood Elementary School and moved to Ocala, Florida. I have been at Saddlewood for almost 14 years.
I have two grown children. Allison is living with her husband in Denver, Colorado. Matt is living in Lafayette, Indiana.
