About Me
I am a second-year, SC and WV certified middle and high school teacher who is ready to bring enthusiasm and charisma to the classroom from a fresh lens. I have lived in WV my whole life but recently relocated to South Carolina. I enjoy coffee, reading, and napping outside of teaching. I truly find passion in my job, no matter the grade, by being unpredictable and humorous in teaching. References readily available upon request.
