I graduated from Coffee High School in 1999. I graduated from Valdosta State University in 2011 with a Bachelor's Degree in Early Childhood Education.  I am currently attending Walden University to complete my Master's Degree in Reading and Literacy.

I live in Ambrose, Coffee County, Georgia, and am married to my best friend, Josh.  We do not have children yet, but we do have an English Cream Golden Retriever, Vella.

I love being a part of Ben Hill Primary and look forward to working with my students every day.  I also enjoy writing (especially songwriting), reading, singing, playing instruments, listening to music, going to church, hanging out with friends and family, playing games, and much more!  I published a book of poetry in 2005, and I am currently working on two additional works of fiction.
