Greetings, everyone! I am thrilled to be a part of the best school system there is! I am originally from Griffin, but my family and I moved to to Zebulon in 2020 and needless to say, we are very happy! My husband, Ben, is a PE teacher and we have two baseball-loving boys, Rhett and Hunter. I graduated from Georgia Southern University with a B.S. Ed in Health and Physical Education in 2009 (Go Eagles!). I received my Masters in Education in Curriculum and Instruction from Georgia Southern in 2013 and my Specialist in Educational Leadership from Columbus State in 2015. My educational career has included being a PE teacher, World History teacher, Graduation Coach, and an Assistant Principal in the Griffin-Spalding County School System. Entering Pike County Schools and the HR world have been some of my biggest blessings and I am excited to serve YOU!
