"I see it all perfectly; there are two possible situations — one can either do this or that. My honest opinion and my friendly advice is this: do it or do not do it — you will regret both." - Søren Kierkegaard

I am a May 2008 graduate of the UMKC Conservatory of Music and Dance with a Bachelor of Music Education degree! I began my career as the music teacher at Franklin Smith Elementary in Blue Springs last year. This year, I am taking the year off from head teaching and am working as a para in the Shawnee Mission School District at 2 different schools. I married the love of my life this past summer and we are living in a 1965 4 bedroom, 2 and 1/2 bathroom house that we are in the process of remodeling. I love to sing and play piano and flute as well as try my hand at other instruments. My favorite free-time activities include reading, marveling at clear night skies, dancing in the rain, and enjoying the sunshine. I have been abundantly blessed and it is my desire to return blessing to the Giver of all those good things through the testimony of a life glorifying to Him.

I reject man made time and replace it with spontaneous planning.

I live in Chicago; I am married; I have 2 adorable pets; I love knitting, writing, books, and reading.
