Hello Journey family! 

 

This is my fourth year with Madison City Schools, and my 18th year in Education. I am a native of Houston, Texas, and moved to Alabama to attend Tuskegee University, where I graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Political Science. After graduating from Tuskegee, my husband I relocated to the DMV area, where I began my teaching career as a Collaborative Teacher for grades 9-12 and coached high school Girls Track and Field. After being on the East Coast for 15 years, my husband and I decided to move back to Huntsville to be closer to family and continue to raise our children. 

 

With almost two decades in specialized instruction and higher education, I have had the privilege of working in a myriad of educational and socioeconomic environments and I take great joy in being a part of my students' social-emotional and academic growth and success. 

 

One of my core beliefs is that understanding and connecting with the student opens the door to teaching and empowering the student. 

 

I enjoy spending time with my husband, two children, and dog (which I consider my third child). I also enjoy working out, reading a great book, traveling and learning about other cultures and trying new food.
