Anna heads up the Hope 3-year-old preschool program. She graduated from Concordia University Wisconsin with a degree in Environmental Studies and worked in several wildlife refuges as a biotechnician while in school. After graduating she taught at an environmental learning center in Minnesota. Rain or shine, classes on history, science, and adventure were held out of doors.


Once back in Wisconsin, Anna earned a Master’s degree in Education and worked in several public school districts. When she's not teaching preschool, Anna works on an organic farm in Campbellsport.


Anna especially loves taking the kids out to the nature center. She tries to teach her students about the beautiful world around them and above all, about the loving God who made it.
