I am beginning my 17th year as an educator, with experience as a classroom teacher, reading coach, and as an EL teacher in various schools. I love what I do, and I am thrilled to be a part of Madison City Schools! I look forward to serving the English Learners, their parents, and their teachers at Madison Elementary and Rainbow Elementary. I enjoy learning from my students and their families about different places and cultures.

My husband and I just celebrated our 30th anniversary!  Our son is a graduate of UAH and recently married, so now we have a bonus daughter!  Our daughter graduated from Auburn and is starting her second year of med school at UAB.  My husband and I enjoy spending time outdoors, playing with our Miniature Schnauzers, going to concerts, traveling, and spending time with our family.
