I graduated from Ozark High School in Ozark, MO in 1999.  After being a stay-at-home mom for many years, I went back to college and got my associate’s degree from PJC and my bachelor’s degree from TAMU-Commerce.  

I am certified to teach 4-12 English, and 4-8 general education. 

I believe that everyone should always be a learner and am constantly working on improving my skills as a teacher. 

I am excited to join the NL team! This will be my first year teaching at the North Lamar district. For the past nine years, I have taught at Paris ISD as a middle school English teacher. 

This year, I will be teaching Theater Arts at Stone Middle School! I am VERY EXCITED about this opportunity to let my passion for the theater spread to students.

I love to read and write. My dream is to one day write a book and get it published.  BUT, as my family reminds me, I need to actually make time to write to accomplish this goal!
