I have been a classroom teacher for over 20 years, working with students from 1st grade through 6th grade.  I love teaching and working with kids! When I am not at school, I enjoy spending time with my family.  My husband and I have been married for almost 25 years and we have 4 children.  We have 3 boys and 1 girl.  My oldest recently graduated and is at JSU for nursing.  My other 2 sons play football and basketball. My daughter is a cheerleader, so we are a very busy and active family.  We have a mini-dachshund named Elmer, who loves to snuggle.  Some of my hobbies are attending sporting events, drawing, painting, writing, and reading.  Our family loves to travel and we try to go on at least one cruise each year.
