Educational Background:

I grew up in a military family where I moved every few years. I attended 13 schools before I graduated high school. Immediately following high school, I attended Troy University in Dothan where I completed my bachelors degree in Elementary Education. I also attended the University of Alabama where I completed my Masters degree in Instructional Leadership.



Work Experience:

I began my teaching career in Texas where I taught second grade for two years. My husband and I relocated to Alabama and I taught first grade for one year in Montgomery. After that, I started at Millbrook Middle School as a fifth grade, English language arts and social studies teacher and stayed in that position for four years. Then, I moved up to sixth grade, where I taught just English language arts for two years. It was then that I found my passion for middle school. After completing my Master's degree, I began working as an Assistant Principal at MMS, for two years. I developed my new passion for teacher leadership and I am SO excited to continue my journey here at WMS!
