​About me:

​I grew up in the Blue Ridge mountains of Virginia and have lived in the University area of Charlotte since 2000. I have two adult children (a daughter and a son), and between work, family and pets (just ask me what all lives in my house!), I stay busy.

I read voraciously, and love mysteries, kids fiction and classic literature. My favorite authors include Terry Pratchett and Alexander McCall Smith. I garden and do artwork as time permits. Before coming to Irwin, I spent 2 1/2 years at Woodland Heights Elementary in Mooresville as the Media Coordinator, three years at David Cox Elementary in Charlotte as the Media Coordinator, and six years at Davidson Elementary in CMS teaching technology classes.

Education:

I completed my Master's degree in Library and Information Science through UNC Greensboro in 2015.

I completed my bachelor's degree in Art Education in 1990, at Radford University, VA.
