I began teaching in 1995 and became an administrator in 2003. I started my career at University Heights Academy in Hopkinsville, KY and then began teaching for CMCSS in 1996. I have taught Kindergarten, 2nd grade and Title I Reading. I became a teacher and then an administrator because I love children and I love learning! I had wonderful teachers in elementary school and my favorite memories were when I got to be the "teacher's helper". That sparked my passion for teaching. I cannot imagine being anywhere but in education! I look forward to working with the students, parents, faculty, staff and community at Burt Elementary! I am committed to doing whatever it takes to ensure our students achieve academically and are prepared for the next level at the end of each school year.
