This is my first year teaching at Sterlington Elementary and my first year in the Ouachita Parish School System.  I am currently teaching Math and Spelling in 5^th grade.

I started teaching in August of 2003 at Lee Junior High in Monroe, La. I taught 7^th grade math there for seven years.  I moved to Bossier where I taught 7^th grade math discovery at Cope Middle School for four years.  I took a break for a few years to pursue my degree in accounting.  

I have a wonderful six year old boy named Colt.  He is in the first grade at Sterlington Elementary.  He is one of the many reasons I came back into teaching.  I want to be in his life as much as I possibly can and this job allows for me to be.  Colt and I do have a dog named Wrigley.  He’s a Boston Terrier.

Things I like to do when I am not teaching:

• traveling to new places
• trying new things
• sporting events 
• concerts
• musicals
• spending time with family (especially my son) and friends
• shopping
• manicures/pedicures
• massages
