Education
Education
I graduated as Valedictorian from Twin Springs High School in 2004. I was Class President and voted by my senior class as Most Dependable. I was an AIM Scholar and a member of the National Honor Society, Fellowship of Christian Athletes, and FCCLA. I participated in volleyball and cheerleading. I was also a member of the academic team.
I started college during the fall of 2004 at the University of Virginia's College at Wise. I majored in Mathematics and minored in Education. While at college, I was involved in Baptist Collegiate Ministries, Intramural sports, Omicron Delta Kappa, Sigma Zeta Alpha, and the Darden Society. I graduated as Summa Cum Laude with my Bachelor of Science degree in the spring of 2007.
I started my Master's degree in the fall of 2007 at East Tennessee State University. Originally, I was going to obtain a master's degree in mathematics. However, I decided to go with the MAT program (Master of Arts in Teaching) . This program was designed for those wanting to teach secondary education. In particular, I studied secondary education in mathematics. While studying at ETSU, I worked as a graduate assistant in the Office of Financial Aid. I graduated with my Master's degree in the spring of 2009.
My first job offer came from Scott County Public Schools in 2009 and I was assigned to Twin Springs High School. I was so excited to be returning to my former high school. My experience at TSHS as both a student and teacher has been great and I hope this place is my forever home.
