This will be my third year at Clinch, and I am so excited to be here. I live in Surgoinsville, TN with my husband Matt, and our 15 year old son, Hadyn. We also have two daughters. Hannah is 25, and Haleigh is 23. I received my Bachelor's Degree from ETSU in 1999, my Master's Degree from Lincoln Memorial University in 2006, and I received my Educational Specialist Degree from Liberty University in 2016. I am currently working on my doctoral degree from Liberty. I have been teaching in Hawkins County for 18 years. I taught at Joseph Rogers Primary (1st and 2nd grades) before coming to Clinch. In my spare time, I enjoy reading and spending time with my family and our animals. We have 2 cats (Trixie and Lucky) and 4 dogs (Gizmo, Paisley, Pepper, and Winston). They keep life exciting.
