I graduated from the University of West Georgia in 2000.  I have taught first grade, second grade, EIP (K-5), and Reading Recovery. I also received my reading endorsement and gifted endorsement. I am currently teaching first grade at Colham Ferry Elementary School.  I have a passion for teaching reading and I love to see the growth first graders make! I am excited about developing relationships with my students this year!  

I married my husband, Brad, in 2002.  He is also a teacher and coaches football.  We have three children.  Braden was born in 2005, Landon was born in 2008, and Brookyln was born in 2011.  We moved to Oconee in 2017 and are so excited to be here!
