Welcome to 3rd grade in "the Woods"! I love teaching and our classroom community! My goal is to work together to grow lifelong learners who enjoy problem solving, making meaningful connections, and are the best they can be. 

I have been married to my husband, Bill, for the last 31 years. We have two amazing children! Jillian is working on her PhD in Environmental Health Physics at Oregon State University and Kenny is in Charleston studying to be a teacher. I was born and raised in Moscow, Idaho. Spent a few years in Knoxville, Tennessee and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania before moving to Columbia, South Carolina. I still love cheering on the Pittsburgh Steelers and Penguins. I love spending time with my family (they're pretty awesome), traveling, singing, dancing, reading, and crafting. I'm always up for new adventures and trying new things.

Thank you for sharing your child with me. It is an honor.
