Welcome Royal Oaks Families! I am one of the 1st grade teachers. This is my fifteenth year of teaching. I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education from Kent State University.

I am originally from Ohio and moved to North Carolina to start my teaching career in 2007. I live in Mount Pleasant with my husband, our 1 year old son Barrett, our two dogs, two cats, and chickens! I definitely stay busy!

I am very excited for this year to start! We are going to have a great time learning in the classroom while incorporating the arts.
