Thank you for visiting my blog. This will be my second year as a resource teacher at Sharpe, but my seventh year teaching. I began my teaching career at Hendron Lone Oak Elementary in Paducah.

I grew up in McCracken County, graduating from Reidland High School in 2000. I then received my Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education from Murray State University in 2004. While teaching, I went on to receive my Master's Degree and certification in Special Education - Mild Disabilities from Murray State University in 2006.

On the Homefront
When I am not at school, I enjoy spending time with my family. I have been married to my husband, Brad, for nine years. We have a one-year-old boy named Mitchell, who is the light of our lives. He is pretty much the center of our world and our activities usually involve doing something that we know Mitchell will enjoy such as playing outside or putting around the neighborhood in our golf cart. Brad and I also enjoy riding motorcycles, four-wheelers, fishing, hunting, and traveling together. I am so very blessed to have both of these boys in my life and they make me look forward to each day. Family is a very important part of my life!
Teaching Philosophy
I have a strong belief that every child can learn, therefore, I strive to teach in a way that reaches every student. I believe that a variety of teaching strategies combined with the help and support a child receives at home helps the child to be most successful. I look forward to spending time teaching and learning with your child!
