I am looking forward to a great year here at JMS working with our wonderful fifth and sixth grade students. I have been teaching in Pickens County since the year 2000. I have previously served as special education lead teacher at Jasper Elementary, Hill City Elementary, and Pickens County Middle schools. I received a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology at Georgia Southern University, a Master of Science in Counseling and Special Education at Georgia State University, and in 2010 I obtained my Education Specialist Degree in Curriculum and Instruction from Piedmont College.
