About The Teacher

Being a teacher was my calling for as long as I can remember.  To prepare 
myself to be an effective, qualified educator, I have a B.A in English and 
Elementary Education from Houghton College and an M.Ed. in Reading from the 
University of South Carolina. I've taught in Indiana, and in Kentucky, where 
I taught Childrens'Literature at Asbury College for 5 years.  I have taught 
in Wilson County for 11 years, first at W A Wright Elementary, now WWMS.  
I've been teaching about 15 years at this point.  I stayed home with my kids 
when they were young, but knew I would be coming back to my calling.

I am an avid reader, preferring historical fiction and realistic fiction.  
Stories that take place in the south, especially in SC are among my 
favorites!  I also like to garden, travel (the beach, and to Europe 2 times--
soon to be 3!) and cook (when I have time!).  I've been married for almost 
35 years, have two wonderful adult children, with another daughter soon--our 
son is engaged to be married next June.  Two dogs and 3 cats share our home.

I love dark chocolate, flavored coffee, lattes at Starbucks, and bread!  
Chocolate and coffee ARE good for you, you know!

Thanks for giving me the opportunity of teaching your children this year!
