This will be my 25th year of teaching. Five of those years were in Spartanburg County District V. I taught Kindergarten and second grade while I was there. Then I took a few years off after my son was born. I came back and supervised student teachers for USC Upstate here in Greenville County for two years. This will be my 18th year at Bell’s Crossing teaching Kindergarten. I have a Bachelor of Arts Degree from the University of Georgia. I earned my Teaching Certificate in Early Childhood Education at Brenau University in Gainesville, GA and I have a Master's Degree in Early Childhood Education from the University of South Carolina-Spartanburg.

I'm originally from Georgia, but I have lived here in the Upstate for many years now. My son Will is a Senior at the University of South Carolina and will be graduating in December. I love to read, spend time with my family and friends and watch Georgia Bulldog football. I also love dogs and so does my son. I have Koda who he rescued during COVID and ha has a puppy named Odyseuss. They are both sweet dogs!
