Higgins, Season / About Me

Hello!

I am so excited to be tackling my second year of teaching here at Gentry Middle School! Working with my GMS band kids is the absolute best part of my day, every day.

Though I am originally from northwest Iowa, this year will be my seventh year in Missouri and my third year in Columbia. Before moving to Columbia I lived in Maryville, MO where I attended Northwest Missouri State University and earned my Bachelor of Music Education in Instrumental Music.

When I'm not in the band room I love to read, craft, travel, and hang out with my Husband, Darion, my sister, Raine, and our fur babies; Midnight, Cricket, Pixel, and Wicket.

I can't wait to meet and get to know all of you this year!
