I have worked with Clover School District for over fifteen years, and have taught at Bethany Elementary School as a general education teacher for those academic school years. I have worked on the Leadership Team, Student Improvement Council, and the Literacy Committee for numerous years. I have my Gifted and Talented endorsement, as well as my Masters+30 in education. I currently teach fifth grade, self-contained, and have been in this position for 14 years. I have also taught third and fourth grade in previous years, but the majority of my career has been in fifth grade. I have a passion for teaching and reading, and enjoy working with both students and colleagues. I graduated from the University of South Carolina in 2023 with a Master's Degree in Language and Literacy. I have a strong passion for teaching and reading, while building relationships both with student and colleagues.
