This will be my twenty-first year teaching and I have been at Saraland Elementary School for all of those years.  I have taught 2^nd, 3^rd, 4^th, and 5^th grades. I received my Bachelors and Masters in Elementary Education from the University of Mobile.

I am married to Brian and we have four children and one grandson. Our daughter Brittney is married to Adam and their son, Lake, is 7 years old. Our son, Baylen, just graduated from the University of Alabama. ROLL TIDE! We also have two younger daughters. Sarah Kate is a 9^th grader at Saraland High School and Sadie is in 2^nd grade at Saraland Elementary School. They keep us very busy but we love every minute of it.

As a teacher, I am determined to make all my students feel as if my classroom is an extension of home. I strive for it to be a safe comfortable place where children feel free to make mistakes, celebrate daily victories, and most importantly be themselves. This year I hope to challenge your children, but at the same time, I want them to have wonderful time learning.
