After spending almost eight years as a sports reporter and editor at a small (mostly) daily newspaper, I decided to pursue again what I believe to be my true calling in the education field. I returned to college and received my English Education degree in December of 2008. After student teaching and filling in a semester opening at Pontiac Township High School, I was hired as an English teacher at Bradley-Bourbonnais Community High School. After spending two years in the classroom, I decided to make the move to the library, which was what I hope will be my last move within the field of education. I am currently the Librarian/Media Specialist at BBCHS in Bradley, Illinois, and I truly believe I have found my home for many years to come. Being a librarian really is the best kept secret in education, and while I miss certain elements of being a classroom teacher, I know this has been the right move for me.===== In my spare time, I am an avid reader and sports fan. I am a fan of the Chicago White Sox and Washington Redskins, and some of my favorite books include //The Catcher in the Rye, Fahrenheit 451, the Harry Potter series, The Jungle, The Hunger Games, East of Eden, A Long Way Gone, and The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time//. Movies I love include //The Godfather, Goodfellas, Gangs of New York, The Big Lebowski, There Will Be Blood, and Blazing Saddles//. I have lived in Bourbonnais, Illinois since summer of 2009.
