I'm starting my 26th year in the NC Public education grades 6th-8th. I'm certified in Gifted Education, Middle Grades Language Arts and Middle School Grades Social Studies.

I love my career! I enjoy working with children, parents, my colleagues and members of the community. I am a lifelong learner and encourage you to become one also. My hobbies are reading, indoor plants, scrapbooking and fitness. I am happily married and we're blessed with a great son and he's a collegiate student-athlete. My faith, my family, my friends and our community keep me focused on the important things in life. I am so blessed to work with young people daily. It is an honor to work in unison with dedicated families and supporting networks to bring the best out of a child. Teaching inspires me to give each child a fun, meaningful and safe educational experience. I thank all the moms, dads, grandparents and extended relatives for the privilege of working with your children.
