Welcome to 5th grade!  I am thrilled to be teaching at West View!  This is my fifth year here as a teacher, but my 15th year teaching.  I graduated in 2006 from ETSU with a degree in Early Childhood Education.    I have taught in a variety of settings over the years and I have to say that being here in Limestone at West View is my favorite!  I live in the community with my husband (Michael), my son (Trent, 11) and my daughter (Alee Drew, 6).  We love being a part of the community we live in.  When I am not at school teaching, I like to spend time with my family at home.  We like to be outside playing and making memories.  I love to read all different types of books, crossword puzzles, and cooking for people anytime I can.  I am a dog lover and we have a miniature Dachshund named Brutus.
