This is my thirty- first year of teaching and my eighth year at Crestview.  I love teaching fourth grade and living in the upstate.  

My husband's name is Rich, and we are both teachers. We have a golden retriever named Cooper!  I also have two wonderful sons, Gregory and Nicholas, a daughter-in -law named Samantha, and a new grandson, Julian!  Currently, all of my children live in  Charleston, SC,  so I like to visit them and go to the beach as often as I can.  

My family and I have a vacation home in the mountains, so we  spend many weekends and summers there.  The house is over 120 years old, so we spend a lot of our time remodeling it.  When we aren't working, we love to hike to waterfalls, kayak, and ride ATVs in the mountains.  I especially love campfires, the beautiful leaves in the fall, and picking apples and blueberries.  My heart belongs to the mountains!
