I am a graduate of both Western Governor's University and Liberty University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Secondary Education with a focus on Social Studies and English Language, and My Master's Degree in Rhetoric and Composition. I have been an educator for the past 28 years. I am most passionate about English, including grammar, Rhetorical and Literary Devices, and Language, and I also love History. I have taught AP Language and Composition for the past ten years and it is my favorite course to teach. My students have had great success with the course and I have been recognized for my efforts on both the state and national levels. I have also had great success preparing students for the ACT and SAT- Critical Reading and Writing exams. I believe that each family and student should choose their own path to education and I enjoy supporting families in all walks of education including homeschoolers. I have extensive training in several curriculum-based programs and have been rated as a distinguished educator for the past 19 years. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my husband and children, working at my church, cooking, painting, and reading. I especially love the mountains and hiking up into the national parks during the fall.
