I have been an employee of the Caldwell County Schools since 1989. I am a graduate of Lenoir Rhyne College where I majored in Elementary Education with a concentration in Communications. My Masters studies were completed at Gardner Webb University and were also concentrated in Elementary Education. I earned my National Board Certification in the study of early elementary students, birth - eight years old. My daily goal is to foster growth in younger students that will help them become confident in their abilities to make a positive impact in their classroom and in their scholastic lives.
