Welcome to Kirkwood Elementary! I am so excited to be your child's Kindergarten teacher. This will be my 29th year of teaching, with 28 of those years spent in Kindergarten. My pride and joy are my two beautiful daughters and my grandson, Jon Michael. My oldest daughter is married and is a graduate of Murray State University. She is currently a commercial loan vice president at Planters Bank and is expecting our 2nd grandchild in August, 2026. My youngest daughter is also married and graduated from Western Kentucky University. She is currently working at Farm Credit Services and is the mother to our first grandson. I also have 2 sweet fur babies, Leo and Gus. We are a grain farming family, and enjoy traveling and spending time with each other. I look forward to getting to know your child this year, and providing them with a warm and nurturing learning environment. Please feel free to contact me any time if you have any questions or concerns.
