I graduated from HHS, got my BA in English, and am certified in 7-12 education. I earned my MA in English Education Curriculum, my National Board Certification in Adolescent to Young Adult Language Arts, and a writing certificate. I am a Highly Qualified English Teacher, certified Master Teacher, and hold a Lead Professional License as well. I've taught an array of high school English courses and middle school courses; including English 9, 9 Honors, 10, 10 Honors, 10 Accelerated, 12, Integrated Literacy 6th, 7th, and 8th, Reading Acceleration 7th and 8th grade, Speech, Cinematic Literature, and Stagecraft over the many years of my career. I have coached volleyball at several different levels for over twelve years. I also coached HMS Track for years but resigned after having children. I am now excited to be teaching Language Arts at HMS. I look forward to having a great school year. My best piece of advice is to always communicate with me!
