I am in my 27th year as an educator. I attended Lee University, graduating with a B.S. in Biological Sciences and Secondary Education in 1994. I have taught in Georgia, Minnesota, and now Ohio. I have experience teaching science to all ages from toddlers to adults and have worked in varied settings including public schools, home school co-ops, private tutoring, museums, community centers, and entertainment venues. I graduated in Dec. 2020 with a Masters of Educational Technology from Miami University.

My current position is the Instructional Specialist for Technology & Data and K-12 Science. I have the honor of assisting teachers with integrating technology and doing what they do best - instruct and assess to meet the needs of all students in their classrooms. I love being able to serve teachers and students in this way!

Outside the classroom, I am a wife and mother, life-long learner, singer, thespian, nature lover, science fiction/fantasy nerd, and tech geek. I am an avid Whovian, Browncoat, Tolkienophile, Trekkie, Potterhead, and Jedi Wannabe. :)
