This is my ninth year teaching. I taught fifth grade my first year, fourth grade my second year, then third grade for a few year, now fourth grade. I have taught in three different grades and in three different schools and two different states. I moved to North Carolina from Kansas which is where I taught my first year. I graduated from Emporia State University in Emporia Kansas in 2012. I have one son named Liam who was born on Dec. 21st 2015 and a second son Wade who was born January 24, 2018. They are my whole world and I have loved watching them grow and change. I also have two dogs one is a Great Dane/Boxer mix. He is a BIG boy with LOTS of energy, but we love him. The other is a toy poodle/chihuahua mix she is only eight pounds but loves giving our big dog a run for his money. I do not live here in Wake County I actually live in Harnett county and drive about 40 minutes to school everyday. This mixed with having 2 toddlers makes scheduling things at school tricky at times. If you ever want a conference with me please keep this in mind. I will work very hard with you so we can find a time that works for both of us. Before school works best for me since I have to pick up my sons from daycare after school everyday. However, with enough notice I can schedule an after school conference time. Just give me about a week to get it scheduled. If you need one right away I can always do mornings from 7:30AM to 8:00AM. My husband and I have been married for eight years, and we have really loved living here in North Carolina! I am really looking forward to this amazing school year and getting to know each and every one of your children!
