This is my second year as a full-time teacher at Archer Lodge and I am so happy to be teaching at the middle school my sons attended! I began my science career at North Carolina State University as a research technician after graduating from NCSU.  I worked with poultry for 16 years before entering education in 2005.  

I have two grown sons, Nicholas and Joseph, and I am married to a behavior specialist for Johnston County Schools, Michael Thompson. I am passionate about traveling and reading.  

I love music, science and to laugh, and I typically combine all 3 in my classroom. I am looking forward to a fun year getting to know my students and listening to them TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD!!!
