I grew up in Windom, Minn., gradua-ting from Windom Area High School in 1984. I am currently in my 22nd year at WDC. I've always enjoyed music classes in school. My elementary music teachers, band directors and high school choir directors all had a big influence on me. At WDC, I teach 6th grade classroom music, 7-12th grade choir and a high school guitar class. I also teach driver education. What I enjoy most about teaching at WDC is the interaction that I have with students. I get to see the students grow as individuals and musically from 6th grade all the way until they graduate. Can you guess who I am?
