I am 37 years old and starting my 15th year teaching. I earned my BA from USC in elementary education and my M.Ed. from Columbia College in divergent learning. My family consists of my husband (Eric), my son (Bryson),and my pomeranian (Gabbie). We currently live in Lexington. My son Bryson is 7 years old and big fan of playing outside and anything sports. He also loves books and trucks. I also love to be outside (I do not like to sit still for very long). I enjoy walking, running, hiking, swimming and riding my bike. I enjoy teaching because there's no ceiling to the amount of knowledge someone can learn, including myself. I believe in a growth mindset and consistent hard work. I enjoy the partnership between teaching and learning from students.
