I was born and raised in Jacksonville, Florida and moved to Virginia in the Summer of 2024.  I teach third grade at Hardy Elementary.  I have one daughter and a grandson and three cats.  I definitely miss the weather in Florida and realized quickly that snow is only pretty in movies and on television.  I hate how cold it is here!

I love sunflowers and being outside any time I can.  I like the beach, lakes and fishing.  I love going camping and gardening and playing cornhole.  I am a huge Florida Gator football fan and the Jacksonville Jaguars.  I like to watch Nascar and go to Langley Speedway as much as we can.
