About me:

My love of teaching began when I was five years old.  I had two teachers who were the most influential in my school years. I have been teaching for 33 years.  The last 20 of those have been here at McGee's in 5th grade.   

I was born in North Carolina, grew up in Granville County, and have lived in Johnston County for 29 years.  I graduated from UNC-Greensboro. 
Reading is my favorite hobby and I try to instill that in my students.
