Simpsonville is more than just where I live—it's a community I've watched blossom over the years, and it's become the heart of my teaching journey. My passion for health and education took root here, growing alongside the town itself. After graduating from USC Upstate in 2008 with a BS in Physical Education and earning my master's from Anderson University in 2018, I found myself even more committed to nurturing the next generation. Now, entering my 18th year as a teacher, I feel incredibly fortunate to do what I love every day. I believe that health and exercise are essential pillars for our children’s futures. As a physical educator, I strive to inspire my students with activities that will keep them moving and motivated for life.
