I am thrilled to be teaching third grade at Lincoln Heights! I began my teaching career in 2004 after getting a b-k license from UNCG and an elementary Masters degree from Campbell. I also received my National Board Certification in 2010 and again in 2019. I have taught grades 1-3 and have enjoyed them all for different reasons. I most love getting to know my students and truly appreciate the trust that families place in me to take care of them each day. I am a rare local who has spent my entire life in NC and I even graduated from Wake County Schools myself many years ago! When I am not at school, my husband and I stay very busy with our two daughters, Ruby and Avery. When I have free time, I love to read and to be outside, walking, running or checking out local parks. I look forward to a wonderful year with the best third graders in the building!
