    This is will be my 7th year teaching and all have been in 5th grade! I will be starting my fourth year here at Silver City and have loved being a Comet! I graduated from North Forsyth and have lived in Forsyth county my entire life. I received my bachelor’s degree from Valdosta State University and my master’s from Georgia Southern. I love to travel and spend time with my family. I coach high school softball at East Forsyth High School and  am a huge sports fan, Go Broncos and Go Braves! I can’t wait to start the year off!

    I am so excited to be beginning my third year as a Comet! This will be my 10th year teaching 5th grade, and my 19th year of teaching in all. I am so excited to teach math and science this year. I LOVE math!  I am married and have 3 children: a daughter who is a senior at East Forsyth, a son in 10th grade, and a son in 7th grade. We love to spend our free time out on the lake, traveling to the beach, watching college football, or watching the Braves. I am looking forward to a fabulous year!

    I’ve been part of the Silver City family since 2008, and I have taught grades 2nd through 5th during my career. In 2005, after leaving the IT world, I graduated from Brenau University with a B.S. Degree in Early Childhood Education. Teaching reading and writing and helping my teammates has always been my passion, so I furthered my education and completed a Masters Degree in Reading and Literacy in August 2007 and a Specialist Degree in Teacher Leadership in 2012 from Walden University. I am the mom of two amazing boys, Joey and Luke. I enjoy spending time with my family and my dog, Ranger.

      I am honored to have been a  member of the Silver City family since 2015. Prior to moving to Georgia, I lived in North Carolina where I taught math and science for 14 years before becoming a math and science coach for an additional 3 years.  I have a bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education from the University of North Carolina at Wilmington and a master’s degree in Curriculum and Administration from UNC-Pembroke. In 2020 I earned the Georgia math endorsement.  I am blessed with 5 amazing children, Mallory, Haylie, Joshua, Samantha, and Dylan.  Additionally, I have 3 wonderful children as my children’s spouses. Wesley is married to Mallory, Morgan is married to Joshua, and Garret is married to Samantha.  Last, but certainly not least, I have 5 adorable grandchildren, Easton, Evie, Killian, Bella and Ryan. In August of 2022 I will welcome a new grandbaby. I enjoy spending time with my family as well as hiking and backpacking.
