I am a native of Clarksville and have been teaching kindergarten through out my entire teaching career. I received my bachelor's degree at Austin Peay State University and my master's degree in administration from Trevecca Nazarene University. I enjoy teaching younger children and enjoy giving them their first school experience. My goal is for my students to develop a well rounded foundation for learning. I hope that through out their first school year I (along with parental help) can be successful in doing this! I am married and have 1 son. I enjoy spending time with them and believe all family time should be valued. I carry this philosophy into my classroom by encouraging parent help and support through out the school year.
