I am a graduate of Auburn University with a Bachelor's Degree in Political Science and a double minor in History and Spanish. WAR EAGLE!!! 

I worked for an international non-profit in Arkansas for 11 years prior to moving to South Carolina. I decided that I wanted to work with "middle schoolers" and followed my passion into the classroom to begin my 2nd career. After working at Gregg Middle for two years, I joined the faculty at AMS. I am very excited to call AMS home! 

I moved to South Carolina with my husband and son and fell in love with the area. I am originally from Alabama and love living in the South. My husband works for Boeing. My son is a student at Ashley Ridge. We have two dogs (Bruin and Shadow) one cat (Sagwa.) When we aren't working, at a baseball, or tending to our zoo, we enjoy boating as a family and love to fish.

I love history and hope to instill a passion for exploration and wonder in my students. My hope is for them to become lifelong learners as well as productive citizens. I am very excited to spend this year with my students, it will be amazing!
