I am a lifelong learner of all things.  Not knowing all there is to know, excites and humbles me at the same time.  It reminds me of the quote by John Cotton Dana:  "Who dares to teach, must never cease to learn." 

Choosing a career in education was one of the best decisions I ever made in my life.  I earned a degree in Social Science Education from Elon University.  Soon after graduation I accepted a position as a history teacher at Western Alamance High School.  The path twisted a bit when I made the decision to temporarily exit the classroom.  Years later I found myself involved as a reading tutor to elementary school students.  Then I began to miss the classroom more, so in 2013, I accepted a full time social studies teaching position at a middle school.  The adventure grew in excitement, as it was different, yet invigorating, to work with preteens.  A few years after that, I joined the Woods' community and have found great fulfillment in being a part of this outstanding school.  I learn something new everyday working with kids, and they give me great hope for the future.
