I graduated and received my Bachelor of Science Degree in Elementary Education from Claflin University in Orangeburg, South Carolina, in May 2008. I was born and raised in Columbia, South Carolina. This is my eighteenth year in Greenville. I have taught 5th grade, fourth grade, third grade, second grade, and 1st grade. I live with my wonderful family, which includes my husband, son, and daughter. I enjoy learning new things and having different experiences. I understand that everyone knows and experiences things differently, so I structure my class around those different experiences and ways of learning. Learning should be fun and exciting, and my goal every day is to make sure it is! I love being a teacher and look forward to the future!
