I am so excited about being at Pelion Middle School this year. I graduated from Newberry College in 2005 with my Bachelor's in Elementary Education, from Scranton University in 2010 with a Master's in Educational Administration, and from Northcentral University in 2019 with an Educational Specialist's in Education. I have been teaching for 17 years, and most of that time I have taught 5th grade, but I have also taught grades 2-4 and 4 year-old preschool. I am elated to start teaching 6th grade and expand my learning and teaching. 
 
I was blessed with 3 sons: 31, 26, and 23. I love them and my 8 grandbabies they have given me with all of my heart. I enjoy spending time with them and my daughter-in-laws. In my spare time, I am either at home relaxing, playing with grandkids, or out and about with my sister.

I am so excited to be a part of Pelion Middle’s 6th grade team! I graduated from UMUC with a Bachelor of Arts degree in English in 2012. I began teaching 6th grade ELA at Pelion Middle in the fall of 2020. I have a real passion for education and love that I get to be in the classroom every day. I am married to my best friend, Joshua, and we have three children: Maddie, Nathan, and Kaleb. I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, reading a good book, and traveling the world. I have been to several countries and a large number of the United States. I have lived all over the place, including Germany, Alaska and Colorado, but South Carolina has always been home! I look forward to having an exciting and productive year.

Teaching has always been my passion. I still remember teaching my dolls and Barbies when I was little. I continued to follow that dream and graduated in 1998 from Columbia College with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Elementary Education. Beginning as a sixth grade teacher in 1998, I later taught elementary aged students for more than 15 years.  I also obtained my Master's in Education, a Master's in Educational Administration, endorsed to teach Gifted and Talented, and have my Read to Succeed certification. It truly delights me that I am back as a 6th grade science teacher at Pelion Middle School. What an amazing way to finish my career as an educator! My daughter is a graduate of LHS and currently attends Midlands Tech and works at Lexington Medical Center. Finally, I have a precious poodle, Jazzy, that waits for me at the door every afternoon.
