After graduating from OCHS in 1999, I attended The University of Georgia where I earned my Bachelors (2003) and Masters (2004) degrees in Middle Grades Education, math and language arts. I earned my Specialists Degree in Instructional Technology in 2011. I also hold my Gifted endorsement. 

In 2004, I began my teaching career in Barrow County, where I taught math connections, 7th grade math, 8th grade math, 7th grade accelerated math, 8th grade advanced math, and Honors Algebra I to 8th grade students. I started teaching at Oconee County Middle School in 2019. At OCMS, I teach 8th grade advanced math and Accelerated Algebra I/Geometry A. I also serve as one of the Beta Club sponsors with Mrs. Holman. 

I live in Bishop with my husband, two sons, and my dog, Gunner. My boys are in fifth grade at HSES and eighth grade at OCMS. In my free time we enjoy spending time together at my sons' sporting events, hanging out at Lake Oconee, and watching UGA football.
