Hello!  I am so excited for another great year at Battle!  I have been teaching for 29 years and first grade is my favorite to teach!  I received my masters in Instructional Leadership from Tennessee Tech, and my undergraduate in Elementary Ed. with a minor in Early Childhood from UTC.

I am married to Tim, and have two daughters, one son in law, and three grandchildren. When we are not in school, I enjoy spending time outdoors, reading, and traveling with friends and family.
