Education: Bachelor of Science in Education in Secondary English Education from Western Carolina University; Master of Arts in Education in Curriculum and Instruction and School Administration from UNC Wilmington
Career: I am a proud graduate of Kings Mountain High School, so it was an honor to begin my teaching career here in 2007 as an English teacher. A few years later, I had the opportunity to teach English at Cleveland Early College High School, where I really developed a love for curriculum. For six years after teaching at CECHS, I worked as a Secondary Curriculum Coordinator for Cleveland County Schools, serving schools all over the district. For the last two years, I have served as an assistant principal at Kings Mountain Middle School. While this will be my first year as an administrator at KMHS, it feels like I am returning home to my roots!
My husband is also a graduate of KMHS, and we have one son who will hopefully be a Mountaineer one day, too! I am thankful for the Kings Mountain community and am honored to serve our school and community.
