Experience
I've been a part of Communities In Schools of Caldwell County for 6 years. I started as a Site Coordinator at William Lenoir Middle School, where I taught for 3 years, before being promoted to Program Director and overseeing operations at the four middle schools we serve in the county. I now manage our organizations data, but have also taken on the Site Coordinator position here at Gamewell Middle where I have been stationed for 1 year.
Favorite Educational Quote and Why
“The scariest moment is always just before you start.” - Stephen King

I want my students to not be afraid to take that first step, to fearlessly pursue their goals and dream.
Why I Became An Educator
I'm an educator because I want to help students see in themselves the potential I already see. To be confident in their skills and abilities, and not be afraid to have their voices heard. To be a positive influence in their lives that will encourage them to want to be successful and reach for the stars.
