This is my eighth year teaching Agricultural Education.  I am originally from Virginia, where I taught for 3 years at Clarke County High School.  I then took three years off to start a family.  My husband's job brought us to Paulding County, Georgia.  We fell in love with it here and made the decision to stay in Georgia permanently.  

I absolutely LOVE teaching our youth about agriculture and its importance in our lives today.  I always look at this: if you got up this morning, ate breakfast, put some clothes on, and got to school or work, thank a farmer!

I grew up raising and showing a variety of livestock animals.  I lived and worked on a dairy farm through college and during my first years of teaching in Virginia.  I would go to bed early, then get up to milk cows in the middle of the night, then grab a few more hours of sleep before heading off to teach the next morning.

I graduated from Virginia Tech in 2009 with a B.S. in Agricultural Sciences with a minor in Dairy Science and Agriculture & Applied Economics.  In 2010, I graduated with a M.S.Ed in Career & Technical Education with an emphasis in Agriculture Education, also from Virginia Tech.

I am married to my loving husband, John, and we have three sweet babies, Paisley, Hudson, and Waylynn June. I love DIY projects, weight lifting, cooking, sewing/embroidering, and jersey cows!
