I have been teaching at Smiths Station High School since 2008 and I am looking forward to many more years!  I am married to my best friend, Doug, and we have two children, Emma and Jack.  I earned my undergraduate degrees in Psychology and Secondary Mathematics Education from Auburn University.  I am working on my Master's degree in Secondary Mathematics Education through the University of West Alabama. I always wanted to help people and I chose mathematics because I knew many people struggled with it. I LOVE teaching math/computer science and Smiths Station High School! I believe math is elegant and the key to logical reasoning and the sciences (which I also love). Computer science is just awesome and so very useful in today's world!
