I am so excited to start my 27th year teaching!  I taught 3rd grade for 12 years and this is my 15th year being a librarian.  I graduated from Western Kentucky University in 1994 with a bachelor's degree in elementary education.  I received my master's degree in elementary education from WKU in 2006 and my master's degree in library media education from WKU in 2008.  Being a librarian, where I get to be involved with every student's reading adventure has been a wonderful experience.

I am married to Jason and have a son, Dalton.  He is a junior in college.  He one day hopes to be a physical therapist.  I enjoy traveling, reading, and watching sports.  I love UK basketball and Tennessee Titans football.  My doggies, Ruby and Gonzo, are my other babies and definitely keep me busy as well.  I look forward to an amazing year!!
