Personal:
I grew up in Atlanta, and went to the University of Georgia where I received Bachelors degrees in both Microbiology and Spanish. At UGA, I was fortunate enough to study abroad in Argentina, where I furthered my love of Spanish. I was also in the Redcoat Marching Band Flagline, and was a color guard instructor for 6 years. Before teaching, I actually studied dentistry. After a year of working on teeth, I decided to move in a different direction and become a teacher. I obtained my Masters of Arts in Teaching from the University of the Cumberlands in 2014. I have a four year old daughter named Sophia, and a chihuahua/schnauzer mix named Georgia. In my spare time, I love doing crafts and watching movies. I am also a certified travel agent and love to travel as much as possible (I have been to four continents, sixteen countries, and six Spanish-speaking countries). I love being part of the Belmont Academy family!
