I was born in Burlington, North Carolina and grew up in a town called Graham. This will be my 23rd year teaching, and I have had experience in every grade level K-5. I have spent the last 3 years teaching 2nd grade at Morehead City Primary in Carteret County. In addition to being a teacher, I am also the mom of a 14-year-old daughter, as well as the owner of a bunny named Milo. In my repertoire of skills, I have also instructed fitness classes, such as Spin, Cardio Kickboxing, and Sport Zone at various gyms. Some of the things I enjoy are working out, wooded trails, kayaking, painting, listening to music, and spending time with family and friends. Mental and physical challenges also interest me, and I participated in an obstacle course race known as Rugged Maniac. I am happy to be here, and I look forward to a great 2022-2023 year!
