A little about me....

York County and even grew up in the York County school system.  I went to Seaford Elementary, Yorktown Midlle and graduated from York High School (GO FALCONS!!!) I had a great time working with the football team, cross country team, singing in the jazz ensemble and even playing in the drum line for a short time.

I received my bachelor's degree from the University of Mary Washington in Fredericksburg, graduationg in 2005. I majored in biology but studied all kinds of neat things like entomology and genetics! I then went on to get my teaching license from Old Dominion University.

Before I decided to teach, I spent some time working in a lab doing water toxicity testing. This job got me extremely interested in environmental issues as our job decided whether or not companies met EPA regulations for dumping into our waterways. Basically, making sure that the water wouldn't hurt the local wildlife.
Once I left there,  I taught high school science at Enterprise Academy. Although I very much enjoyed my time there, I couldn’t resist the opportunity to come back home to York County! This is my first year at Grafton Middle and so far I absolutely love it!!

Oh yeah, and if you couldn't tell, I'm a big sports fan.... I'm all about some Patriots and my Red Sox!  

Love me some RED SOX!
