I graduated from High Point University in 2018 with a Bachelor's Degree in Special Education-Adapted Curriculum. I completed my Master's Degree in Special Education-Adapted Curriculum in May 2019. I am a current student at the University of North Carolina Greensboro, earning a PMC in School Administration.
EXPERIENCE:
I have taught Functional Skills k-2, Cross Categorical 7-8 and Functional Skills 6-8. I am licensed in both Functional Skills and Cross Categorical Special Education. I also work at iCan House in Winston-Salem, part-time. This organization works with children and adults with special needs to teach social skills through direct instruction. I am a facilitator with Family Services in Winston-Salem. We work with at risk youth and their families and utilize an evidence-based practice to promote greater outcomes/family bonds and decrease drug use and incarceration.
BIOGRAPHY:
I am a passionate teacher and consider myself to be a life long learner. I plan to continue my career as a graduate student to ensure that my practices remain current. When I am not teaching or in class, I spend time with my Bernedoodle, Wyatt, garden, camp and run. I am originally from New Hampshire, so spending time in nature brings me joy. I have wonderful friends and family. Teaching and working with our amazing students is the most important thing I do. I am passionate about creating individualized instruction that best meet the needs of each of my students.
