This is my 10th year teaching and I am excited to be sharing it with you. We are going to travel into the wonderful world of LIFE together. From the littlest organisms to the largest, our journey will take us far into the realm of Life Science.

I attended Hollins University for my BA in Biology. I received my MA in Education from Virginia Tech. I have worked in several different technical fields before deciding that I wanted to teach. I worked for 3 years in Veterinary clinics and hospitals. I also spent 6 years in the pharmaceutical industry doing research.

I have a passion for science. I have loved science since I was in high school. My hope for the year is that I can pass my enthusiasm for science and learning to my students!

When I am not teaching, I enjoy spending time with my kids and husband. In my free time I like to read, scrapbook, and go for walks with my dog.

I am really excited about this year!
