I have had the pleasure of being at Deer Creek Elementary since I first
started teaching in 2002. All but one of those years has been spent with
3rd grade. I fell in love with Great Expectations, and so in 2005, I became
an instructor for them teaching methodology during the summer. In 2007 I
earned my National Board Certification. For as long as I can remember, I
have had a heart for education. It is a joy to teach using the little
moments of each day for learning as well as having a blast with the kids!
I have lived in Oklahoma since my father retired from the Army when I was a
freshman in high school. That is a long time compared to moving every two
years! I attended Oklahoma Baptist University and received my Bachelors in
Elementary Education.
I am very close to my family, who live nearby, except for my younger sister
who lives in Phoenix. I was married in November of 2007 to Raymond. We
enjoy life together serving in our church, playing games, picnics at the
lake, watching reality TV, frequent runs to get ice cream, and most
importantly spending time with family and friends!
It is my desire to create a safe and enthusiastic atmosphere where active
learning can take place and will result in life-long learning that will
positively affect the communities surrounding each child!
