This year is my 10th year in North Carolina's Public Education System. I have taught for Edgecombe, Pitt, and Charlotte-Mecklenburg School Systems. I have a M.A. and B.S. in English, with a concentration in Creative Writing and a minor in Political Science.
I love all aspects of teaching literature, but my favorites are 20th Century World and American.
I am a writer-in-training with future aspirations of publishing a novel for mass distribution.
On a personal note, I am a mom of two rambunctious toddlers, a playfully aging "puppy" and a wife. I am passionate about education for students and teachers, social injustice, literacy, and film.
