I am so excited to be part of the Olive Chapel family again this year! This is my nineteenth year teaching and my twelfth year at OCE. I have taught both first and second grade, but second is my favorite!
I was born in Atlanta, GA but my family moved to Cary, NC when I was just a baby. I grew up in Wake County Schools and I graduated from Apex High School! I went to Campbell University where I played 4 years of volleyball. GO CAMELS! I graduated in 2007 with a degree in Elementary Education and then again in 2011 with my Masters of Education with a certification in AIG education.
When I am not teaching, I enjoy spending time with my amazing children and my partner, Ryan. My son, Jackson, is in 7th grade at Lufkin and my daughter, Campbell, is in 4th grade at Olive Chapel. We love playing games, going to the pool, playing at the park and going on walks. My life is a little crazy right now with two active children and I wouldn't have it any other way!
I'm looking forward to learning all about you this year!
