About Me :)
I graduated from West Rowan High School in 2003 and Catawba College in 2007, where I obtained a Bachelors' of Arts in Mathematics and a minor in Secondary Education. Getting a degree in math was one of the hardest things that I have ever done. I worked very hard and cried many tears, but I did it! And, I want you to remember that you can too. During my senior year of college, which was also the year Carson opened, I did my student teaching at here. I came back in August of 2007 to start my first year of teaching. I have taught Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Math 1, Advanced Functions, and AP Statistics.
On October 4th, 2008, I married my high school sweetheart Matt. He is a teacher, too :) He teaches 5th grade at Shive Elementary. We have a 4 year old daughter named Adaline Mae. We call her Addy for short. We also have a 1 year old son named McGuire. They are such blessings to our lives. We look forward to each new day with them! Don't worry, you will hear lots more about them! We also have a 8 year old black Lab named Jackson. He is a wild man :)
Lastly, I am a very simple person. I love my family and friends and want the very best for them at all times. I believe a positive attitude is the key to everything. Whatever you want in life, you have to work for. And, I want to help you get there. Don't worry :)
“Keep your thoughts positive because your thoughts become your words. Keep your words positive because your words become your behavior. Keep your behavior positive because your behavior becomes your habits. Keep your habits positive because your habits become your values. Keep your values positive because your values become your destiny.”
