I am originally from Pittsburgh, PA and am a fan of all things Pittsburgh sports! (GO BLACK AND GOLD!) I graduated from Slippery Rock University and moved here to Raleigh in 2010. After teaching on year at a private school, I began teaching in Wake County in 2011. I taught for four years at Wendell Middle School as the 8th grade ELA teacher. This is my 4th year being an ELA teacher at at Dillard Drive.
I met my husband in college, freshman year and we got married in 2015. Our son, Zachary was born in 2016 and is the funniest, sweetest little boy. I love reading and am always taking suggestions on any good books you might have read and loved recently. I am also an avid sports fan and love to talk sports, especially football.
I want all of my students to feel that they have a voice in my class and can be comfortable enough to share their opinions and creative ideas. If you ever want to talk about a good book, the most recent football game, or anything else, I will always have an open door and an open ear.
