Hello and Welcome!
NC has been home for about 30 years, but I grew up in the Northeast and then Virginia. I've been teaching since 2010.
I love most things English--reading and writing (talking in front of people less so--irony!). Music, crochet, gardening, science fiction & fantasy are some of my jams.
It is my privilege to show up to school everyday and interact with the funny, smart, wonderful individuals who are my students. I want everything for them, but mostly that they have the tools to think critically about themselves, their experiences and their world, and to apply informed reasoning to their decision-making. It would be fabulous if they loved literature, too.
