Hi! I'm the multi-categorical self contained teacher for grades 3-5 at North Central Elementary. I graduated from Andrew Jackson High School (1993), B.A.  in Sociology; Furman University  (summa cum laude, 1997), MAT (ED/LD) USC 2002.  I am both SRA and Orton Gillingham trained. Before returning to graduate school, I worked in halfway houses in NYC, and a group home for men with disabilities.   While in graduate school, I worked as an  ABA therapy assistant.  I started my teaching career in Anderson School District 5.   I have worked in inclusion, resource, and self contained settings.  This is my seventh year in Kershaw County and I am excited about the new school and the new school year!  

Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my husband and 4 kids. I also enjoy cooking, yoga, and swimming.
