I am originally from Raleigh, North Carolina; but left my senior year of high school to move to Tennessee. I received my BS in Elementary Education with a Psychology endorsement from ETSU in Johnson City, Tennessee. After graduation, I realized I missed home and decided to move back. I am now in my fifth year teaching elementary school. I am married to my college sweetheart and enjoy spending time traveling with him. I also enjoy reading and spending time with my two dogs.
