Welcome! I am so excited to be teaching Kenowa Hills High School students for the 15th school year and as a teacher for 17 years overall! Previous to teaching, I received my bachelor's degree from Alma College (Go Scots!) in Accounting and Business Administration and pursued a career as an accountant for several years. I decided to returned to Aquinas to acquire my teaching certificate and Master's degree in education for Business, Accounting and Math to fulfill a lifelong dream! I am extremely fortunate to have the opportunity to teach business classes at KHHS because they are diverse, reflect to real world topics and truly prepare students for future business related careers!
There are a variety of introductory and advanced courses offered at KH in the Career and Technical Education department and we strive to update and align them to the ever changing tech business world . My overall goal beyond teaching the content of the course, is to inspire my students as well as to become responsible, ethical adults. I also believe each of my students has the ability to achieve great success in their future career and I hope to facilitate the development of these skills to move them towards this goal .
The business skills students will learn in General Business will not only prepare them for a future business related career or post secondary classes but also give them valuable life skills. The coursework includes traditional note-taking, collaborative work, projects, and varied assessments. The Dave Ramsey Foundations in Personal Finance course is included within this course.
