Greetings, and welcome to seventh grade ELA Reading! This will be my 11th year teaching public school, with a sixteen-year history of homeschooling.  I grew up in Camden and graduated from Camden High School, but have lived here in Lugoff for twenty-seven years. My husband Creig is a longtime employee in the Maintenance Department of KCSD. We have been married almost 39 years, and have four grown children. I enjoy reading, hiking, "yardening," canning, cooking, baking, and dancing, among other things. Mostly I love spending time with family and friends!

I am certified in Secondary English and have my B.A. and M.A.T. from USC.(Goooooo Gamecocks!!) I also have my Read2Succeed endorsement.

It is so awesome to be teaching seventh grade ELA at LEMS! I look forward to meeting all my students and their families!
