I am a graduate of Tennessee State University where I received my Bachelors of Arts in English and Central Michigan University where I received my Masters of Arts in Educational Instruction. I am passionate about helping young people become excellent Readers and Writers. I am most proud of my outstanding ability to grow the proficiency of my students and prepare them for success on standardized assessments. I love watching them transform into confident scholars. I come from a long line of educators. My mother, father, sister, uncles, cousins and husband are all teachers and school administrators. It is definitely our "family business". In my spare time, I love reading, writing short stories and spending time with my family.
