I graduated from Southwest Onslow High school in 1991. Earned a B.S. degree in History in 1995 from Methodist University. I began my teaching career at Massey Hill Alternative school in Fayetteville in 1996 before coming to Swansboro High school in 1997. During my 24 years of teaching, I have taught World History, U.S. History, Civics, Physical Education and Health as well as Sports Medicine 1 and 2. In my spare time, I am fortunate to coach volleyball and basketball while also serving as one of the Co-Athletic Directors. I also compete in national Dog Sports competitions with my two Labrador Retrievers; Millie and Bentley.
