I am excited about this school year and the fun it will bring! This will be my 9th year teaching NC Pre-K. I attended Western Carolina University, where I earned my Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education and my Master's in Special Education. When I'm not teaching, I love to spend time with my family and friends. My husband, Cory, and I enjoy experiencing new things, cooking, and being in the great outdoors. I'm always looking forward to working with students and watching them develop over the school year. Please feel free to contact me anytime with questions and/or comments!
