I am a 2002 Houston County High school graduate. I received a bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education from Georgia College and State University. I received a master's degree in Early Childhood Reading and Math from Walden University.  I began my teaching career in 2006 at Westside Elementary and taught first, second, and third grades. I was also named Westside Elementary's Teacher of the Year in 2012. In 2016 I transferred to Perdue Primary where I have taught second grade. I love being part of the Panda Family and enjoy teaching students to find a love for reading and math.
