I never knew I wanted to teach until my academic adviser suggested I consider education at the end of my sophomore year of college. After some hesitation, I chose to earn degrees in the field of Business/Marketing Education which was an ideal balance for my passion of learning technology and helping people. For the first part of my career, middle school felt like the best fit. Nearly a decade later, I was ready for a fresh professional challenge. New Century offered me a job teaching high school engineering (pending completion of 160+ hours of training). Now I have the dream job of teaching 4 different engineering courses: Introduction to Engineering Design, Civil Engineering & Architecture, Scientific Payload Design, and Engineering Design & Development. I also serve as the yearbook adviser and the school information specialist.

I absolutely love learning! At New Century, my brilliant students and I share the desire to progressively excel in a goal-oriented academic environment. My favorite quote regarding students is by John Maxwell, who says, "They don't care how much you know until they know how much you care." During the summer I coordinate a non-profit scholarship program called Distinguished Young Women of Madison County.
