About Me

About me:

I am happy to be a part of the CCMS team. I have taught in Buncombe County for 17 years and have always heard of Cane Creek's reputation of creativity and collaboration. My student teaching was at Reynolds High School, then I taught 6 years at North Buncombe Middle, 5 years at Enka Middle and did semester interim's at Eblen Intermediate, Erwin Middle and Enka Intermediate. To complete my circuit around Buncombe County, I substituted around the county in the Intermediate through High school levels.

I was raised in Asheville and attended Enka High School. I received my BA at UNCA in all three track of Theater - acting/directing, technical and general. I received my Theatre MFA, with a concentration on Directing, from United States International University in San Diego, CA.

Before coming into the teaching profession, I worked in professional theater as director, actor, stage manager and technician from Atlanta to Maine to Southern California. I decided to return to the wholesome atmosphere of Asheville to raise my sons. I work weekends at Mission Hospital in Health Information Management where I enjoy listening to books as I work. I enjoy sharing my passion for theatre with young audiences and I look forward to learning from everyone in this community.
