I graduated from Appalachian State University in 2011.  I have been married for 11 years to my wonderful husband, Jeff.  We live on a small farm where we raise goats. I also have 2 dogs and 3 horses. I enjoy cooking, camping, raising goats, playing volleyball, line dancing, and spending time with my family. 

This is my eleventh year of teaching, but it's my first year teaching first grade. I am blessed with a wonderful first grade team at Gamewell Elementary School and fantastic leadership to help me get started. I am excited to see what all this year holds for my class.
