About The Teacher

I am very excited about my third year at West Elementary.  My husband, Shane 
and I moved back to Tennessee after being stationed in Norfolk and Virginia 
Beach, Virginia for 6 years.  Shane was serving in the United 
States Navy, spending much time overseas.  I, meanwhile completed my 
education at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, VA.  I graduated with a 3.5 
GPA earning my BS in Interdisciplinary Studies and Elementary Education in 
2005.  A year later, I graduated from Old Dominion again with my MS is 
Elementary Education, this time with a 3.95 GPA.  I spent some time subbing 
for Virginia Beach City Public Schools, and once I had moved back to 
Tennessee, I was hired as an interim teacher in Murfreesboro.  Shane and I 
currently live in La Vergne, but hope to move to Mt. Juliet soon.  We are
expecting our first baby in January, so it is sure to be an exciting year. 
When I'm not teaching, I enjoy spending time at my church, reading,
scrapbooking, hiking at various state parks, traveling, and playing with my 2
dogs, Daisy and Roxy, and my 2 cats, Anna and Abby.
