Philosophy of Education

I believe that every child can learn. If given the right resources, every child can learn to their potential!  Ever since I was very young, I have wanted to become a teacher.  I love helping kids and enjoy seeing the delight in their eyes when they grasp a new concept!!  That makes this job so rewarding!!

Personal Information

I have been married to my husband, Joe, for 3 ½ years. He works in Minden at Royal Plastics. We live in Campbell. In 2005, were blessed with a daughter, Georgiann. She is a very active 2 ½ years old. She loves to run, play, read stories, and play with “her” volleyball girls. She is getting extremely excited for the arrival of her new baby brother sometime around this Christmas season. My hobbies are my family, being outdoors, and playing sports. My favorite movies are:
Sweet Home Alabama, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, and Saving Helen. I listen to lots of different kinds of music. My favorite type of food right now: I’m pregnant-anything spicy!
