About Me

Let's see...I was born in Beckley, WV on April 19, 1979. We moved around alot during my elementary school years, from Illinois to Virginia to North Carolina. We finally moved back to West Virginia my 4th grade year and we stayed. I graduated from Mullens High School in 1997 and that fall moved to Georgia, by myself without a car (crazy to think about that now - wow, what a restless 18 yr. old will do!), to attend Emmanuel College. I graduated from EC in 2001 with a degree in Early Childhood Education. I stayed in Georgia after getting a job teaching and got an apartment in Athens. After living there for about 2 years, my younger sister, who just graduated from UGA (GO DAWGS!!!) moved in. She was a good roomie! However, I just recently moved into a new place. I miss my sissy, but I'm excited about something new. I'm still teaching at AES, although this past year was my last year teaching 2nd grade, for now anyway. I got my master's degree in reading and literacy almost 3 years ago and plan to go back to school for my specialist before too long. I just finished the classes to get my ESOL (English as a second language) certification. I am now teaching ESOL kindergarten through 2nd grade this school year. I am excited about that! I enjoyed growing up in WV, it's such a beautiful state, but after 10 years I do feel like I am a GA Peach now (sorry Brad).
