Hello!

I am so excited to be back at Battle Academy teaching first grade.    In my previous 24 years of teaching, I have taught Kindergarten, third grade, and middle school.  I received my Masters in Instructional Leadership from Tennessee Technological University, and my undergraduate in Elementary Education with a minor in Early Childhood from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.

I am married with two daughters who both attended Battle.  My oldest is newly married and also teaches first grade in Hamilton County.  When we are not in school, I enjoy spending time outdoors and traveling with friends and family.
