Hello! This will be my sixth year teaching! I grew up in Minnesota and then moved to Morehead City, NC in middle school. I went to West Carteret High School and was a proud Marching Patriot! I graduated in 2014 from the University of North Carolina at Wilmington. I also got married in 2014, to a wonderful man named John. He works with my parents at their business, Outer Banks Boat Harbor, near Harkers Island (so if you need any boat work done, I know a great place to take it!! :) ) John and I are foster parents to a wonderful 7 year old! We also have two cats, Maverick and Phoenix and a dog named Beacon who I treat as my own children, your students will hear lots of stories about them. I cannot wait to get to know my students and help them grow as scholars and individuals. I am so lucky to be able to teach at the beach! Here's to a great year!
