I have been teaching here at Irmo for 11 years, in the English Department.  Before this I taught at Saluda High School.  I went to high school in Orangeburg, SC, and I got my undergraduate degree in English from the College of Charleston. I received a Master's of Education in Divergent Learning at Columbia College.  And in 2009 I became a National Board certfied teacher.

I have been married for 22 years, and we have four sons, ranging in ages from 10 to 21.
