I have been teaching English Language Arts for the last 5 years! I have taught 12th grade Writing, 11th grade Mythology, 7-8th grade Reading and Writing, and 10-12th grade Etymology and Creative Writing. I also have been in charge of a few committees and have some resources for keeping staff morale up too!

Student-centered activities and lessons are the aim of my plans! I think mini-lessons are important and utilize them a lot, but most of the time you will find my students using task cards, creating group projects, and wandering around the room for gallery walks. I love to design creative lessons for students to enjoy.

As a college student I received an academic scholarship and made the Dean's list every semester. I have obtained leadership roles such as Team Lead, President of the Sunshine Committee, and President of PBIS Committee.

I went to Ball State University pursuing a Secondary English Education degree. I graduated with a BA and secured a job two weeks later teaching at a 1-1 school (who knew that'd help so much in the coming years!).

Many of my lessons can be completed entirely virtual, as that is how this year has begun! I have experience teaching in Texas, Illinois, Indiana and now Missouri and most of my lessons can be adapted for any and all of the above states and standards!
