All About Me

            I am more than thrilled to have your student in my class this year!  This is my ninth year teaching at Pelham Road Elementary and I know it will be a great one!  I am originally from Rock Hill, SC.  I started my education at Winthrop University, where I learned a lot, but I knew there was more to see.   I decided to transfer to Converse College, where I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a degree in Early Childhood Education.  I  continued my degree and earned my masters from Walden University.  I earned my M.S. in Education with a specialization in Technology Integration in grades k-12.   I always knew that I wanted to be a teacher and I always knew that I wanted to teach Kindergarten!
