1. How many years of experience do you have teaching or in the school system? I have been working for Bedford County Schools for 14 years.
2. What made you want to become a teacher or work in a school? I started my career as a speech and language teacher working with pre-k through 12th-grade students. I soon discovered my real passion was working with preschool-aged students with disabilities. I love seeing them grow and gain confidence as they move through the school system in Bedford County.
3. About what are you most excited for working at Cartwright? I am excited to be a part of the opening of a new school, making our mark in the community and getting to know new students and families.
4. Is there anything extra you would like to share? I was born and raised in Murfreesboro and graduated from MTSU. In my spare time, I enjoy traveling, spending time with my five nephews, working in the garden or relaxing on my patio with my dog Oscar.
