This is my 2nd year at Barrett Elementary and in Stafford County Schools. Prior to moving to Stafford, I lived in Arlington, VA with my family for the last 13 years, amongst other places. I have worked for Fairfax County Public Schools and a private school in Washington D.C.  I am married and have 4 children (ages 5 to 20), whom I love to spend all my spare time with.  I also have two dogs - little shih tzu's! I love to read, hike, fish with my kids and play games! My passion is watching children grow and learn and I love to foster the love of reading.
