This is my twentieth year of teaching elementary music and my eighth year at College Park. I am so excited to be an Owl!

Growing up in a small town in Pennsylvania, my earliest memories are of my family getting together to play bluegrass music. I started piano lessons in third grade and decided then I wanted to be a music teacher. I earned my degree in music education from Clarion University of Pennsylvania and later went on to earn my National Board Certification in Early and Middle Childhood Music. I am an Orff certified music teacher, and I am currently taking graduate classes with the music department at UNCW. 

I absolutely love what I do and believe having a strong, standards-based music education program is vital to a child's overall educational experience. 

I look forward to a fantastic year of making music!
