Education 

I graduated from North Carolina State University in 2012 with a degree in Middle Grade Language Arts and Social Studies. 

Work History 

A Brief History 

I have lived A LOT of places. I was born in North Carolina. We moved to Canada when I was two, and I moved back to North Carolina to attend University. After graduating, we moved to Washington DC.  Next we moved to Nashville, TN, and we finally landed in Tallahassee in November 2017. 

​

I love to travel and have had the opportunity to visit several Canadian and US cities, Kuwait,  and several cities in Europe.

 

My husband and I plan to visit all of America's National Parks. We have visited The Badlands in South Dakota, Many Glacier in Montana, and Yellowstone in Montana and Wyoming. 

 

I love cooking and trying new recipes. I enjoy trying new cultural recipes, and trying new takes on classics.  Currently, I am teaching myself quilting, crafting, and calligraphy.  

​

Above all, my favorite hobby is reading! In middle and high school, I did not enjoy reading, but developed a love for it in college. Each year I issue book challenges; this year, I am planning to read two books per month.  Each year it is my goal to produce students who enjoy reading. 

I student taught in an 8th Grade US History Class, and enjoy incorporating historical documents into my language arts lesson. 

 While living in DC, I worked as a lead teacher in an after care program. Along with my co-teacher, we implemented lesson plans and extra-curricular activities for fourth graders in the heart of Washington DC. 

After moving to Nashville, TN, I began working as a Language Arts teacher.  In my first year I taught 6th grade, and then 8th grade. For the last 3 years I have taught 7th grade writing. 

I have taught 7th and 8th grade Bridge at The Creek.
