As the proud Principal of Carolina Springs Middle School, I bring a wealth of experience from my previous roles as Assistant Principal at both Clover High School and Harold C. Johnson Elementary School. My teaching journey began in Lee County, where I taught 7th grade History, followed by eight fulfilling years teaching 8th grade South Carolina History at York Middle School. 

A native of Givhans, South Carolina, and a Summerville High School graduate, I hold degrees from Francis Marion University (B.S. in History) and Winthrop University (M.A. in Curriculum & Instruction). In 2015, I earned my Ed.S. degree from Arkansas State University, where I am currently completing my Ed.D. and anticipate defending my dissertation this fall.

Outside of school, I enjoy traveling, shopping, and swimming with my three wonderful children.

I have been a proud member of the Carolina Springs family since the school opened in 2007. Prior to teaching at Carolina Springs, I taught at Palmetto High School (Anderson School District One) and Lexington Middle School (Lexington School District One). Through the years, I have taught many wonderful 6th-12th graders AVID, Leadworthy, and Spanish, facilitated virtual Latin and Sign Language, worked with students who needed extra support, and served as assistant girls' basketball coach. 

Originally from Anderson, S.C., I am a graduate of T.L. Hanna High School. I hold a B.A. in Spanish Education from Anderson University. While attending AU, I had the pleasure of studying abroad at Cemanahuac Educational Community in Cuernavaca, Mexico, and performing with various chorales and wind symphonies. I hold an M.A. in Educational Administration from the University of South Carolina and have earned certification in English for Speakers of Other Languages as well as Gifted and Talented Education. 

Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my husband, Trey. We love to travel, attend sporting events, and visit family.

I taught Social Studies and coached for 10 years at White Knoll High School before taking an administration position in Richland One at Crayton MIddle School. Three years later, I was called back to my Red Bank community to serve as an administrator at Carolina Springs Middle. I am honored to serve a building full of hard-working and dedicated people who strive to provide the very best opportunities and support for our students. 

Originally from the St. Louis area, I graduated from Lexington High School. I then received a B.A. in History/Political Science and an M.A. in Social Studies Education from the University of South Carolina. I am working on a research Ph.D. in Foundations of Education, also through Carolina.  

I am an avid sports fan and collector of mid-century furniture and pottery and Japanese art, and I love to travel with my family.

While this is my sixth year as a Husky, I began my career in education at St. John’s High School on Johns Island, SC, as an English teacher. While there, I was named Rookie Teacher of the Year and Personalized Learning Demonstration Teacher. In 2016, I joined Lexington One as an English and Model Classroom teacher at River Bluff High School. Since 2019, I have served the Husky family as the digital learning coach and an assistant principal. I hold a bachelor's degree in English and master’s degrees in educational administration and teaching from University of South Carolina. I also participated in the Lowcountry Writing Project at The Citadel.

I enjoy spending time with my husband and two children, Marcus and Eleanor. In my spare time, I am an avid reader, and I play competitive softball.
 
I look forward to an amazing and rewarding school year watching all of our students learn and grow to their fullest potential. Go Huskies!
