What is your Alma Mater?
East Tennessee State University

Where do you currently teach?
Rock Springs Elementary
Sullivan Co.


How long have you been teaching?
18 years

Why do you choose to be a member of TMEA?
Tennessee Treble Honor Choir
Access to resources and professional development for my classroom


What do you love about teaching?
Sharing my passion of music with others. I love sharing music with young children and seeing how natural it is for them to enjoy.

If you could choose another job for one day, what would it be?

A chef.

Tell us one thing about you that people would be surprised to know or something you are passionate about besides teaching.
I love to cook.

Share a fun and unique idea that you use in your classroom!
​​​​I love to have students become the teacher. When teaching an instrument part I only teach to one student and then they continue teaching to each other. It's not so much about the exact pattern, but more about the process and communicating. ​
