Experience
I have been teaching upper elementary for almost 10 years now at an amazing school! I support my school by making lesson resources, and I love to connect with other educators across the country at tech conferences.
Teaching style
EDUCATION IS MY ADVENTURE.
PEOPLE ARE MY FOCUS.
It is my hope that you sense a passion for learning in the things that I do. It is a life skill that continues on outside the classroom. I seek to build an engaging and encouraging environment that teaches my students to love to learn for themselves. Each day, we engage in hands-on activities, utilize lots of technology tools, and show off our creative sides. The reason I go into the classroom every day is to inspire my students to do their best and achieve whatever dreams they have. It all begins right here.

Additional biographical information
I enjoy traveling to different parts of the world and LOVE learning new cultures. I have stepped foot in seven countries and have many, many more on my list to visit! I have played the piano since I was in 4th grade, and I have a strong appreciation for music and the arts. I love to adventure outdoors: hiking, biking, kayaking, etc. I get an absolute thrill from finding some good deals at Goodwill. I have worked with specialty coffee for five years as a barista in the Greenville area. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends doing fun stuff! My favorite color is teal, and I have a slight obsession with anything concerning coffee or elephants.
