I love experiential lessons for students to participate in their own learning. I believe that the value of life-long lessons outweighs the facts. Our combined school is unique! The elements that make it unique provide opportunity for discussion. Some things we will talk about in our school family, as they cannot be ignored. Cultural learning happens with or without us, so I would rather be intentional about these conversations!

I grew up in Greenville and taught in Greenville for a few years before heading to Deltona, Florida. There I taught 6 years at Timbercrest Elementary in Volusia County. After having our first daughter and while expecting the second, we returned home. I have been teaching at Sterling School now for 17 years!

I am nationally certified by the National Board of Professional Teaching Standards. I am state certified in Elementary Education, Gifted Education, and Teaching Reading. I earned my Master's Degree with honors from Clemson University in Literacy Coaching. I never stop learning.

I am happily married to Chris, a school administrator in Greenville County. We have three daughters who all went through CTC: Emma is at Clemson studying engineering, Katherine is at Wade Hampton High School for her senior year, and Madison is a freshman there. We have a little Jack-Chi, Remington. If I carve out "me" time, I love playing pickleball, working out, playing board games, the beach, and the sound of the ocean.

I feel called to the profession of teaching. I believe that is the only way to do it well. It's not a "job." Learning in the 21st century is incredibly exciting, and children are (literally) the future!

How lucky am I that I get to work with them every day!
