My goal is to inspire children to find their love for reading and literature. Children can be inspired at an early age by the excitement of finding knowledge and by works of the imagination. This creativity and use of their imagination will filter and effect all areas of their life.  I want students to leave the RBA library excited about the new books they have chosen and the adventures they will go on with their characters! 

I am from New Bern NC! I have been teaching 7 years and this is my first year in the Media Center! I graduated from East Carolina University with a degree in Elementary Education with a minor in English as a Second Language. When I am not at RBA, I am playing with my 4 year old daughter Harper. She keeps me busy and we enjoy going on walks, and trips to the park and the beach. I am excited for another great year with LIGHTNING LEARNERS!
