I was born and raised in Gaston County. I graduated from East Gaston High School, CPCC and East Carolina University (Go Pirates!) with a degree in Information Technology Education. I started my career as a teacher assistant at Kiser Elementary and stayed there for 15 years. I am a lateral entry teacher and joined the Grier Middle team during the 2013 - 2014 school year.
I love spending time with my family. My husband (my high school sweetheart) Jeff and I have 2 children Luke and Lauren. As a family we enjoy boating, camping, co-ed softball and playing games.
