About Me...
My name is Angie Neilson and I've been teaching for 7 years; three of those years have been at CM, and the rest at Collinsville High School. I am married and have three crazy, beautiful children: Camryn is 7, Knox is 5, and Ryker is 3. I am a 1999 CM graduate and went on to study Family and Consumer Sciences at Eastern Illinois University. I spent a few years as a merchandise coordinator with Neiman Marcus before I decided to go back and begin a career in education. I have a certification in Business and Family and Consumer Sciences, and I love teaching the courses I do. I never have to worry about students saying, "When will I ever use this in real life?", because everything I teach is everyday life skills they'll need to be a successful adult. I look forward to having many wonderful years at CM, packed full with laughs, student successes, and learning that both engages students, as well as encourages them to be life-long learners.
