I attended the University of North Alabama where I earned a Bachelor of
Science Degree in Elementary Education. I also earned a Master's Degree in
Elementary Education from UNA. I started my career teaching 3rd grade in
Savannah, TN. I taught there for three years before moving to
Cullman in the summer of 2008. In my spare time I enjoy walking, running,
going to the Aquatic Center, attending UT Football games (Go Vols!)and
spending time with my family and friends. I am married to Michael Fowlkes.
Michael works at the Cullman City Board of Education in the Technology
Department. Michael and I are blessed with a son, Brody Karson. He will be
one year old on November 4th. We have twin nephews, Bryce and Dylan, who are
in the 9th grade this year. I am very excited about teaching again this year
at West Elementary! This will be my 7th year to teach. :)

My main purpose as a science teacher is to inspire my students to become
critical thinkers. I want my students to see that science is a process, not a
body of knowledge and that the most successful scientists ask more questions
than they answer.
