About Me
Hello! My name is Abbie Biegner and I am currently a sophomore at Gustavus Adolphus College. I'm majoring in elementary education with a history minor. I love working with children and helping students become life long learners. I grew up in Alexandria, MN and love the Minnesota seasons. I love to travel and visited Germany, Austria and Switzerland this past January! I enjoy playing the violin and singing in choir! I absolutely love all dogs, chocolate, watching movies, reading, listening to music and the color pink!
