  • I was born in Hillsborough, NC. I lived there my whole life until I moved to Asheville to go to college at UNC Asheville.

  • As an NC Teaching Fellow at UNCA, I had many great experiences touring amazing schools across the country. I graduated from UNCA with a degree in Sociology and a license to teach K-6. 

  • I've been teaching 5th grade since 2011. It's by far the best grade to teach!

Some Interesting Facts About Me:

  • I've had tons of weird pets growing up. LITERALLY hundreds of animals (think parrots, snakes, iguanas...even a miniature alligator. I had an interesting childhood...ask me about it :) )
