I am very excited to be joing the staff of Onslow Virtual School as a First Grade Teacher. This will be my 9th year teaching, and 4th year with Onslow County Schools.  I previously taught First Grade at Richlands Elementary School for 2 years, First grade at Parkwood Elementary School for 1 year and NC PreK for 5 years. In 2009 I graduated from Drexel University in Pennsylvania with a degree in Elementary Education K-6. I attended Haywood Community College for Early Childhood Education Credentials and East Carolina University for my Early Childhood Education License. I am currently enrolled at Western Governors University for my Masters in Special Education. I grew up in New Jersey and moved to North Carolina in 2011. I love everything about North Carolina and Richlands has truly become my new home town.  I look forward to the school year and all the exciting things that we will be learning and doing this year.
