Originally from Carrington, I continued my education at VCSU, majoring in Elementary Education. I started my teaching career in Leeds, where I taught 5th grade. I’ve also taught combined 4th and 5thgrade, as well as just 4th grade. My favorite subject to teach has always been Math. I am in my fourth year of teaching in high school and am very excited for this school year.
