Hi!! I love what I do every day as a kindergarten teacher. I returned to teaching after many years in the management field. I missed working with children so I came back! I have been with WCPSS since 2005. I joined the Leesville school family in 2008. I have always been teaching, children or adults through many management roles prior to returning to the classroom. My husband and I live in the NW Raleigh area close to LES. I have three children. Our youngest son is in high school on the Leesville campus. My oldest son and his family leave near the Leesville community. My daughter got married last spring and lives in Knightdale. I love the outdoors and working in my yard. My favorite flowers are Gerber daisies. I am a big East Carolina University Pirate Fan, and enjoy tailgating at all home football games. Chocolate is always a good thing and I can usually be found close to a Diet Mountain Dew. I love being a facilitator of learning to help each child learn and grow. I value so many of the friendships with the families that I have had the joy of meeting through teaching! Please feel free to stop by and volunteer for some fun in my class!
