Welcome to my class website. This school year (2025-2026) will mark my 28th year of teaching. Twenty-two of those years were spent teaching third and fourth grade in Fort Pierce, Florida. After living in Florida for 36 years my husband and I decided to close that chapter and move to New Bern North Carolina. We absolutely love it here!
I knew I always wanted to be a teacher. I love working with children. Nothing excites me more than when a student accomplishes something he/she never thought possible. I received my bachelors and Master's degrees from Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton, Florida. My Master's degrees are in Reading Education and Leadership. The highlight of my career occurred January 9, 2015 when I was presented with the Milken Educator Award. Watch that special day by clicking the picture below. |
I was blessed and honored to be named Craven County's 2023 Teacher of the Year and 2024 Southeast region teacher of the year!
Meet my family
I live in New Bern with my dog Roscoe! I have two amazing boys. Wayne is thirty-seven and lives in Boulder Colorado with his wife, Catherine. He loves hiking, climbing, biking, and running. Austin (the tall one) is 28 and lives in Ohio. He loves camping and trail bike riding.

Two years ago I got to ride in the backseat of an F18 with a blue angle! It was a ride of a lifetime! |
