I am excited for my second year here at Trailside Middle School as one of the 8th grade Physical Science Teachers!  My family and I are somewhat new to Loudoun county and have enjoyed getting to know the area over the past two years. I have a B.S. in Psychology from Texas A&M University and hold a lifetime teaching certification from the state of Texas.  I have previously taught 7th & 8th grade science and substituted in many other classrooms.  

We came to Ashburn from Whidbey Island Washington by way of the Navy.  I have been a proud military spouse for 21 years and counting! My husband and I are the proud parents of two beautiful children, a daughter who is a junior and a son who is a freshman at Stone Bridge.  

In my free time I love getting to know the area with my family and snuggling with our three Siamese kitties.  I also love to shop, cook, craft, and entertain. I look forward to getting to know many of the students here at Trailside this school year!
