Hi, I have been teaching in Buncombe County since 2008. I am a Buncombe County native and attended North Buncombe High School.

I attended UNC Greensboro and received my Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education. I also attended Western Carolina University where I received my Masters's in Social Sciences Education with a focus on American History. Before teaching at Owen I was a 6th- grade Social Studies and Language Arts teacher at Enka Middle School.

I have been a history nerd for as long as I can remember. My favorite topics include the Industrial Revolution and its impact on society, global conflicts, and the cause/ effects of the Cold War. History is great and I look forward to sharing my expertise with future students.
