About Me

Welcome to a new adventure! 
This year we will be learning lots of new skills while still having fun! I am so excited to have you and your child as a part of my room! 

I am an Oneida native! I have lived in Scott County my entire life and went to school at Oneida High School.

I have been married to my husband, Will since 2015. We have a cute little schnauzer named Crosby and our sweet son, Gardner! 
Throughout my school years, I have had teachers that influenced my career choice! I hope as a teacher in my classroom, I can do the same! I know I can't change the entire world, but your child can! I want to inspire them to reach their goals, no matter how big or small!
After high school I went to Roane State and received my Associate's degree in education. In 2006, I went to TTU and received my Bachelor's in Education! 

In 2009, I taught in 1st grade at Huntsville Elementary
From 2010-2012 I taught GED through the Fentress County School System
And from 2012, I have been an Oneida Indian ever since! 

This will be my 14th year teaching and my 11th year at Oneida! Even though I would LOVE to say I have it all together...I most certainly do not. I am always learning new things!

Of all the grades I have taught, I am so in love with Kindergarten! If Kindergarten has taught me anything it's that I won't believe everything they say about you if you won't believe everything they say about me :)
I can't wait to make wonderful memories with your kids!
