About The Teacher

I completed my undergraduate degree at James Madison University in Health 
Sciences.  I have a Bachelor of Science degree with a concentration in 
Health Assessment and Promotion and a minor in Exercise Leadership.  I 
worked at the Virginia Beach Health Department and coordinated the 
Cardiovascular Health Promotion Program for a little over 3 years.  In this 
position, I was able to teach health classes to children.  It was at that 
time that I realized my true passion is teaching young children!  I decided 
to go back to school and get my teaching certification in Elementary 
Education from Virginia Wesleyan College.  I am so happy that I made the 
change!!  I absolutely love every day in the classroom with my students! 

This summer I spent doing my administrative internship at Thoroughgood 
Elementary School.  I served as the Assistant Principal for the summer 
school program.  I value this experience and everything I learned from the 
administrative staff.  I plan to utilize the skills and knowledge that I 
gained from them everyday inside and outside of the classroom.  I will be 
finished with my degree in Educational Leadership from The George Washington 
University this winter! 

This is my fourth year teaching at Trantwood Elementary School.  I am 
serving as grade level chair to a team of five wonderful teachers.  I am so 
excited that we will have three teachers new to Trantwood in our grade!  I 
can't wait to see what the 2008-2009 school year will bring!
