I am a veteran teacher with 24 years of experience in 5th, 6th, and 7th grade.  I've taught 5th, 6th, and 7th grade math, science, reading, and language arts.  I taught for 20 years in neighboring Barrow County, and I was fortunate enough to get a job at MBMS when my daughter began middle school here. 

I enjoy classes that engage students in activities and demonstrations as well as using cross-curricular skills to facilitate learning. My goal is to help students learn to think for themselves, problem solve, and show how science is found in our everyday lives.

I completed my undergraduate and master's degree at the University of Georgia and remain a faithful Dawg.  I finished my Specialist in Education degree at Augusta University at the end of the summer of 2021. 

I have one daughter who attends North Oconee High School. I spend a lot of my free time at her volleyball matches or making and decorating sugar cookies.
