Welcome to my page! This is my sixth year teaching at Newport Grammar School. I have taught first and second grade. I attended NGS as a student and it feels like home! I received my Bachelor's degree from Tusculum University in Elementary Education K-5. I received my Master's degree in Arts of Education from Cumberland University. Teaching is one of the things I enjoy most. I am looking forward to meeting my 2024-2025 second grade class!
