Here's a little bit of information about me...

My husband and I are both originally from Greenville, South Carolina. We came to Florida to attend Southeastern University. We have been married for a year and a half now! Josh and I happily live in Lakeland along with our new puppy, Jada.

This is my third year teaching. I interned at South McKeel in 1st grade during my final semester at Southeastern. After graduation, I joined the McKeel family! My first year, I taught 5th grade and then I hopped down to 3rd! In my spare time, I coach the Varsity cheerleading squad at the Big School, love scrapbooking, and hanging out with my youth kids at church.

In the classroom, I love to have a "family-like" atmosphere where all students feel safe to learn and be themselves. While they master the skills they need, I am always integrating technology and hands-on learning whenever possible! This is my best year ever! It is truly a blessing to be a WILDCAT!
