I began teaching in 2008 at Decatur Northside Elementary, after 3 years I moved to Southside Elementary in Siloam Springs where I taught 3rd grade math and science for 5 years. In 2016 I moved back to Decatur Northside Elementary. I have taught grades 1-4. I currently am the District Special Education Director and Elementary Special Education Teacher.
I have been married since 2006. We have 2 children, Logan is 12 and Hannah is 7. My husband and I are both graduates of Decatur High School. We attended school in Decatur K-12. We love this community and are proudly raising our children here.
When I am not teaching I enjoy spending time with my family. We love to go camping, fishing, and swimming. I enjoy watching sports and am a Razorback fan!
