Welcome! I am so excited to be your child’s teacher this year. This will be my 4th year teaching First grade at Dixon Elementary. I’m thrilled to be part of the Dixon Family.

I am originally from Guam but I was raised in California and Hawaii. I have been married to my husband for almost 20 years (Gasp!Time flies). Together we have 2 beautiful children. My daughter will be starting her senior year at UNCW and my son is a Junior  at Dixon High School.  We have been living in Eastern North Carolina for over 8 years. We are a military family and have lived in Hawaii, California, Seattle, and mainland Japan. That said, we are finally settling down and will be calling this beautiful state our forever home.

 I am passionate about teaching my littles and seeing their smiling faces. Children learn best in a positive, loving environment.  I believe in fostering a classroom community where students can be challenged, that it’s okay to make mistakes and understand that it takes EFFORT to excel.

I look forward to a fabulous 2022-23 school year!
