I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in Early Childhood Education and graduated from Oglethorpe University, in Atlanta, Georgia. Prior to teaching in Loudoun County, I taught at the elementary level in the public school system of Tampa, Florida. I was born in Ipswich, England, but my family moved to the United States when I was two years old, and I spent my formative years in southwest Florida. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my son and traveling to see my family whenever possible. I am extremely excited about the 2012 – 2013 academic year, and I look forward to a great year at Meadowland Elementary School!
