This is my second year as the English teacher on the 6 Purple team! Previously, I spent five years as the middle school gifted support teacher and four years filling various substituting positions. It is hard to believe this is my 11th year working at Northern! I am a Dillsburg native and graduated from Northern in 2008. 

I completed my undergrad at Waynesburg University in 2012, receiving a Bachelor of Arts degree in Secondary English Education. I also have an additional certification from Messiah College in Special Education 7-12. I completed my Master's Degree through Liberty University in Curriculum and Instruction in spring of 2022.

My wife and I live in Dover. This summer, we welcomed a baby boy named Joey. Plus, we have a cockapoo named Wynnie. In our free time, we enjoy watching movies, playing card games, reading, and traveling.

I am looking forward to a great year!
