About the Teacher

Welcome to Blair Elementary School. I am looking forward to working with the AIG students at Blair this school year.

This will be my 24th year of teaching. I graduated from UNC Wilmington with a BA in Elementary Education K-6 and a Masters in Reading/Education K-12. I have taught many different grade levels, first through fifth grade, sixth grade and several reading classes at UNCW.

My husband and I have two children, our son graduated from UNC Greensboro with a degree in psychology and is currently working on a second degree in Computer Technology. Our daughter is a senior at UNC Chapel Hill majoring in Biology and Chemistry. She will complete a fast track Nursing program after graduation and eventually become a Nurse Practitioner. We also have two very sweet and spoiled dogs, Milly and Izzy.🐾🐾 Even though my husband and I are empty nesters, it doesn't really feel that way with Milly and Izzy around. 😁

I love to read, play tennis, do yoga, exercise, travel, scuba dive, go to the beach and out in our boat. I especially love warm tropical places. I also have some interesting eating habits. I do not eat meat, I am a pescatarian, I only eat fish. I also do not eat sugar and haven't had any processed sugar in five years. The students think I'm really crazy when I tell them that!🤪

I look forward to making this an exciting learning experience for everyone. Feel free to e-mail with questions or concerns.
