I am native to Florence and graduated from West Florence High School “Class of 1998”. I have always had an urge to teach, but did not pursue a teaching degree when I first graduated high school. I went to FDTC and earned an associates degree in Engineering Graphics and Technology in 2001. I worked in the manufacturing world for the next 13 years until I returned to FDTC and earned a Physical Therapist Assistant degree in 2015. I then worked in outpatient therapy until I began teaching at the Florence Career Center this year.  Going into my third year of teaching I am very excited to work with my students and and explore the world of Sports Medicine and Therapy.
