I am in my 8th year teaching at Harnett Central and also attended high school here. My love for sports and connecting with others influenced my decision to become a teacher and work with youth. I attended East Carolina University where I received a Bachelor's Degree of Science in Kinesiology with a concentration in Human Studies. I have been married for 7 years now and have two beautiful sons, who are ages 5 and 2.  I strive to make a positive impact on each of my students' lives and feel as though it is an honor to receive the opportunity to educate them.  Watching them grow into successful and self sufficient adults is my top priority.
