BMS Media Specialist
BMS Media Specialist
I am proud to be the BMS library media specialist, working in the BMS Media Center and helping students with research, reading, technology, and digital citizenship. I have been teaching at BMS since 2001. I coach the BMS Football cheerleading squad, and I co-coach the BMS Battle of the Books team.
I enjoy being the BMS Media Specialist because I love books and working with students while living in beautiful Western North Carolina. In my spare time, I like to read, hike, watch sports (especially Carolina Panthers and Duke basketball), travel, and spend time with family. My daughter, Katlyn, is a recent graduate of Appalachian State University, which is also my alma mater. Go Mountaineers!
