This will be my fourteenth year of teaching, with all of my years coming from fourth and fifth grade.  I went to school at Virginia Tech (Go Hokies!) and graduated with an undergraduate degree in Early Childhood Education and my Masters in Curriculum and Instruction.  I am from Salem, VA (a town beside Roanoke) and have lived in Northern VA, North Carolina, California, and am so happy to now call Stafford our home!  I am married and have a son in fifth grade and a toddler at home.  We enjoy traveling and being outdoors, as well as curling up with a good book.  I love teaching and look forward to the new school year!
