I graduated from Kirby High School in Memphis, TN in 1999. I went to Jackson State then transfered to University of Memphis. I graduated in the fall of 2011. 

I have a Bachelors of Science degree in education. I have my teacheing license in Teaching All Learners and endorsements in Sped k-12 and Regular Ed k-6.

I have been to multiple Sped conferences as well as hourly workshops. I have attended multiple Regular Ed workshops also. 

This is my first year with the Humboldt City School District. I am a Special Ed teacher working with grades 7^th and 8^th. I will teach  a class of Life Skills and Intervention as well.

I started teaching in 2014. My first teaching postions was at Madison Oaks Academy. This is a residential (students live there) behavioral center. Most of the students were put in this center for behavior by DCS or judge ordered. I worked with 6^th through 12^th grade students. Around 50% or  a little more of the population there had an IEP. At this facility behavior was the main focus. I worked at MOA for almost 3 years. I left in late July 2016 to teach at Northeast Middle School in Jackson, TN. My first three years there, I was one of the three teachers that had the Read180 rotation. I was the Math and Social Studies teacher for them. Last year they got rid of Read180 and I moved full traditional but still teaching Math and Social Studies. I also work After-school at South Gibson Elementary with homework for grades k -8^th and have been there for 8 years. I’m not sure how that will work this year though.

I’m a ball mom. Most of our free time is spent at the football field, baseball field, or the basketball court. I love to watch my kid doing what he loves. We aso love to go fishing. I personally, like to go alone. It’s so peaceful and relaxing. Jax always wants to go though, so most of the time, we’re all there.
