I’m Ellie, my husband, Jeff and I will be celebrating 7 years of marriage this August. We are expecting our first baby this fall and feel incredibly blessed. In 2021, I graduated from the University with a bachelor’s degree in special education – severe emphasis. I worked for a year as a teacher in an elementary classroom at a special education school. I loved teaching these challenged students. After my first year of teaching concluded, my husband and I decided we should take advantage of this phase of life and took a 3-month trip around the world (It helps to have a travel agent in the family). Since then, I have worked as a nanny and currently work in my husband’s family business.

In our free time, we love to play golf, board games, and spend time outdoors – including taking care of our chickens, yard, and garden. Also, we still love to travel.  We enrolled in the Begin with the Children Parenting Program during our prenatal 1 st Trimester. We look forward to September (2025) when we excited enter parenthood—with a baby boy.
