I currently teach 7th grade Social Studies on the Happy Campers team here at WLMS.  I am beginning my 21st year in education, all of which I have spent here in the wild, wild West.  I absolutely love history, geography and anything concerning history!  I am originally from Catawba County and a graduate of St. Stephens High School.  After high school, I attended Western Carolina University to obtain my Bachelor's Degree in Middle Grades Education (2001) and went on to obtain my Master's Degree in Middle Grades Education with a specialization in History from Appalachian State University (2007).  I am also certified to teach high school History (9-12) and have an add-on licensure in Special Education from UNCC.  Teaching is my passion and middle school is my calling.  I count it an honor to teach here at WLMS and consider this the best middle school in Lincoln County.  Thank you for the opportunity to teach your children and pass on my passion for Social Studies!
