I am honored to work for School District Five of Lexington and Richland Counties, which is known far and wide for its dedication to excellence, but more importantly, to children. As a graduate of the University of South Carolina, I have been dedicated to the field of education for more than 16 years. During this time, my experiences include teaching grades three through six, earning National Board Certification, and being recognized as Teacher of the Year. I have Master’s degrees in Elementary Education, Divergent Learning, and Educational Administration. Besides my family, serving Leaphart is one of my greatest joys. My husband and I are blessed to have 3 wonderful daughters.  We enjoy cooking, reading, and college football. 

Leaphart Family,

It is my honor to serve as an assistant principal at Leaphart Elementary School.  I have been in School District Five of Lexington and Richland Counties for the past seven years where I previously served as an assistant principal at Dutch Fork Middle School.  Other previous experiences include teaching middle school social studies and serving as an elementary assistant principal.  I have a Master's Degree from the University of South Carolina in Educational Administration and I have earned National Board Certification.  Outside of school I enjoy spending time with my wonderful family which consists of my amazing wife and three beautiful daughters.  I also enjoy playing tennis with any free time I can find.
