This is my second year teaching special education at New Providence Middle. I have been in the school system for five years. I am originally from Clarksville. I graduated from Northwest High in 2002. I am a military spouse and my husband recently retired from the US Army. We have 3 sons and a goldendoodle. I received my bachelors in Interdisciplinary Studies in 2014 from APSU and my masters in applied behavior analysis with an emphasis on autism in 2018 from Ball State University. I am currently pursuing a second masters in special education from APSU. My goal for this school year is to build healthy relationships with my students while helping them progress academically.
