I have taught at PFES since 1991. During that time I have taught first, second, and third grades.  I am currently teaching 2nd grade. I got my undergraduate degree at the University of South Carolina in Elementary Education. My master's from Radford University is in Curriculum and Instruction with an emphasis in Adult Education. As well as teaching second grade at PFES, I teach the GED class at PFES two nights a week. I feel very fortunate to be working at PFES!
My daughter and her family live in Columbia, S.C. I have two wonderful grandchildren. Gabrielle is in 5th grade and just turned 11. Holly, who just turned 5, is in preschool at the same school that his sister attends. I visit them often and encourage them to visit me here in Virginia as often as they can.
I have many interests other than teaching. Most of all, I love to do things with my hands...like painting, making repairs on my house, working on my car, building things, working puzzles, sewing, and yardwork. I love to read and do crossword puzzles. I now have the job of keeping my great grandmother's fruit cake recipe alive. Traditionally, my mother made a fruit cake with this family recipe every Christmas season. I grew up helping make that cake every year. Then my daughter joined the tradition. Now, my grandchildren love to get their hands in the mix! My family is very important to me.
