Hello! I'm so excited to teach here at Traveler's Rest. I am originally from Nashville, Tennessee, and went to college at The University of Alabama. I taught there in Tuscaloosa, then my fiancé and I moved to Greenville this summer for his engineering job! We get married in November, which is why I decided to go by Mrs. Blankenship instead of Ms. Mantooth- though I'll answer to either! 

I have a miniature schnauzer, Margot, and I love spending time with her, reading (obviously), going to church, doing arts and crafts, and spending time outside! I'm a huge nerd as well and love Marvel movies and playing Dungeons and Dragons.

I truly care about each student and I want my classroom to be a safe space for everyone. I'm always here to listen!
