Welcome to my webpage!  I am so excited about teaching at Moore!  This is my 19th year of teaching ELA and Social Studies. I believe each student is created uniquely with special abilities that make a positive impact on our classroom.  I love teaching students and enjoy helping them achieve their goals.  I love teaching students and enjoy helping them achieve their goals.  I love to watch students grow as they challenge themselves to make progress on their educational journey. 

My education incudes a BA in Psychology and and Education Credential from the University of South Carolina.  I received a Masters of Elementary Education from Francis Marion University.  I earned my Masters Plus 30 in the field of technology.   I have been National Board Certified since 2001. I also have strong character beliefs and value character education. 

I am married and have two married sons.  I cherish spending time with them as well as my parents.  I love photography and taking pictures of my family and nature.  Each year, I use our special memories to create photo albums. 

I love music! I love to try to play the piano and listen to all genres.  Contemporary Christian is my faviorite. My personal goal is to play piano to serve God.  I also love nature and being outside.  My favorite place to be is at the beach walking in the fresh ocean breeze, biking, or paddling the marsh in my kayak.  I also love to travel and experience other cultures.
