I earned my Bachelor's Degree from Bellarmine University in Middle School Education with an emphasis on Social Studies and Language Arts. I earned my Master's in Education and Rank I from the University of Louisville with an emphasis on Instructional Technology. 

Before joining JCPSeSchool I taught at Noe Middle School for twelve years. I spent my early years teaching both Social Studies and Language Arts in the 6th grade. I later taught Reading in grades 6-8. For the last three years, I was the computer teacher as well as the Related Arts Team Leader and Practical Living Department Chair.

Online learning provides students a second opportunity at material they didn't understand the first time. It also allows students to review the material at their own pace and as often as they need. Some students who have not experienced success in the regular classroom, can have high achievement through online learning. I break the material down into smaller pieces, provide helpful feedback, and give re-teach sections that allow the students to visit the material a second time in a slightly different way.
