Meet The Teacher

I have been teaching for what seems like FOREVER--this will be my 23rd year! Good news...I still LOVE it! I was an army brat, so I grew up all around the world. I received both my undergraduate and masters degrees from Radford University, in southwest Virginia, and my specialist degree in Curriculum and Instruction from Berry College in Georgia. Over the years, I have earned my endorsements in gifted and ESOL. I am also a National Board certified teacher. 

In my spare time, I love reading, traveling, hanging out with my friends, catching up on DVR homework, and most recently getting back into blogging. I'm a Virginia Tech Hokies football fan, as well as a Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets fan!  I love the Braves and the Hawks too!  

I've been happily married to the love of my life and best friend for almost fifteen years. He is pilot and naturally we share a love for travel.  We also enjoy college football, baseball, board games, Guitar Hero, movies, and watching tv shows together. 


This is the Super Dog, Bailey. We don't have any kids, but we treat her just like one! Even though she looks like she is being tortured, she really is SPOILED SILLY! She does lots of tricks and loves to snuggle. She rocks!
