Hello! Clarksville is certainly home to me as I was born and raised here in our beautiful city. I went to CMCSS schools from elementary through high, and my undergraduate degree is from Austin Peay State University. I am currently obtaining my master's degree from Lipscomb University. Prior to teaching, I worked in nonprofit management internationally in Ethiopia for a couple of years and then here locally for a couple of years as well. When I'm not in my classroom, I enjoy getting outside, exercising, traveling to the mountains, spending time with my family, and drinking an absurd amount of coffee. To say I am thrilled for this school year is an understatement! I am one of the 6th grade Reading Language Arts (RLA) teachers, and I am proud to be an Eagle here at NEMS! I love to stay in touch with my students' parents or guardians, so please feel free to contact me via email with any questions, concerns, or comments. I am looking forward to a wonderful year with my students!
