Kelli Self

I am an Asheville native and a proud graduate of Buncombe County Schools. Formerly a School Library Media Specialist and English Teacher at A.C. Reynolds High School, Lead Media and Digital Learning Specialist for Buncombe County Schools, and School Library Media Specialist at CD Owen High School, I am currently the Secondary English Language Arts teacher for the Buncombe County Schools Virtual Academy.

I hold a Bachelor of Arts in English and a Master's Degree in Education, both from North Carolina State University, and I am Nationally Board Certified in English Language Arts.  I am a Mentor for the North Carolina Digital Leaders Coaching Network, a North Carolina Digital Learning Competencies Ambassador and Ignite Speaker, and a Google Certified Trainer. 

I come from a long line of life-long educators and am happiest when I'm teaching AND learning.  I'm a voracious reader and tinkerer and love spending time with my family and my cats.  🐈‍⬛
