WORK EXPERIENCE

This is my 10th year teaching at MIS, but my 12th year teaching. I love teaching music! I have the best job in the entire world!

EDUCATION

I graduated from Wingate University with a Bachelors Degree in Music Education (K-12) in May of 2012. 

HOBBIES / INTERESTS

I love to watch the Food Network, I love to try new recipes, and I love to paint! Painting is my favorite hobby! I also like to travel to the North Carolina mountains and spend time with my family. I love to decorate my house, and go antique shopping for unique finds. I also like to play piano, and I have been taking lessons since I was five years old! Most of all, I love teaching and spending time with my little family.

FAVORITE MUSIC

My favorite musical group is Fleet Foxes. They have a mountain/folksy sound that is relaxing. My favorite Fleet Foxes song is "White Winter Hymnal." The group Pentatonix does an awesome cover of this song! I love jazz music and I also like to make up songs and raps. My favorite instrument is the voice because it can do so many things, and everyone's voice is unique!

This is a picture of my son, Hudson, and my daughter, Iris. Hudson just turned seven in June, and Iris turned four in April. Hudson is a 1st grader this year at Rocky River Elementary School! Family is really important to me. I love both of my children dearly!

My husband Kyle and I have been married for 10 years, and we just celebrated our anniversary in June. We have known each other since we were in the 3rd grade and we grew up in the same town. We actually went to rival high schools and then reconnected once we were in college. I love my family!

My family is a musical family! My husband Kyle plays the drums and can sing. We used to play in a band together. Hudson loves music time at Rocky River, and Iris loves to dance to music! One of their favorite songs is "Scatman" by Scatman John.
