Personal

Family is very important to me.  My children keep me on the go with their involvement in a multitude of sports as well as their long time passions of band, volleyball, swimming, scouting, sailing and horseback riding.  I have children attending 4 of our state universities and am proud of their successes. Though being raised and educated in the Sunshine State (Florida), I have now lived in North Carolina for over 25 years.  My family and I are most often found outdoors and while I miss the white sands and blue waters of the west coast of Florida, I love the nearby mountains of our state!  I spend any free time I can find hiking and trail running… and I must admit, sometimes lying in a hammock under the trees! 

I believe that our students deserve access to rigorous and meaningful curriculum and learning activities.  I want our students to understand the value in supporting each other and in giving back to their community.  I believe that a well-rounded student provided a multitude of learning opportunities leads to a full, grateful and happy adult life and a healthy and strong community for all!  I look forward to continuing my partnership with each of you in the academic, social and emotional growth of your children.  As an assistant principal at SGHS, I strive to ensure success both in and out of the classroom for all students!  Go Storm!
