Hello! My name is Amy and I am in my 8th year of teaching. I am a Business Education teacher at Mundelein High School. I have taught many business courses, including, Introduction to Business, Computer Applications, Business Incubator, Accounting 1, Honors Accounting 2 and Technology Support Internship.

Prior to becoming a teacher, I received my undergraduate from Miami University in Business. I worked in marketing for five years before deciding to obtain my master's degree in Secondary Education. I am able to relate many of my real-world business experiences to the classes I currently teach. Recently, I also finished my Teacher Leadership Masters through Concordia Univeristy.

In my free time, I love spending time with my husband and two year old son. We enjoy going for bike rides, going to the library and park, and just exploring the world. Life with a two year old is an exciting and exhausting adventure! But I wouldn't trade it for the world!

I look forward to learning and working with each of you.

  1. Cute kid! My wife does more on social media than I do, but she also tends to include photos of the kids rather than herself. It's fun to be able to share them with others. Good luck this semester!

  2. Hi Amy! It's nice to "meet" you. Is the master's degree in Secondary Education what you are working towards now at Dominican? Your son is absolutely adorable, I love the professional shot of him!

    Your son is absolutely adorable! I am so interested to get some perspective from a high school teacher this semester. My sister also went to Miami University, small world!
