I grew up in south Georgia and played school a lot.  My first teaching experience came when I was an eighth grade student.  During that year many of my teachers had us teach our classes as a project.  At the time my teacher commented that I should really consider teaching as a profession because he saw me as a "natural".   I attended the University of Georgia to obtain both my Bachelor of Science in Education and Masters of Education.  My BSEd focused on middle grades education in the fields of mathematics and science.  I bleed red and black! 

I began my teaching career here at Oconee Middle School in 2001 directly after my student teaching.  I currently teach 6th grade Earth Science.  I am thankful to have spent my entire career at Oconee County Middle School.   I am thankful to teach wonderful students and being surrounded by a fabulous school family.   

I am happy to be involved in this school and in this community, both as a parent and as an educator.
