I am originally from China Grove, North Carolina. I moved to New Bern after graduating from East Carolina University in 2005. I completed my Master's Degree in Elementary Education from East Carolina in the Summer of 2011. I have taught kindergarten at Trent Park for 12 years. I moved to 2nd grade for two years before moving back to kindergarten. I am excited to travel through this journey with you this year.


I have two children, Alex and Emery.  They have a four legged brother named Ty. They enjoy getting into mischief together. My family also enjoys taking trips to the park as well as other local child friendly spots.
