Personal Profile:

I was born in York, PA, and moved to Charleston, SC in 2006.  There, I taught high school biology for three years and moved to Murfreesboro, NC in 2009. 

Educational Philosophy:

I believe that building positive relationships with students is of paramount importance in fostering a successful educational experience.  Making the content relevant and meaningful to the individual student is a critical component in improving both content mastery and retention.  I am passionate about both learning and my discipline.  I teach my students that science is a dynamic, changing body of knowledge and what is considered scientific fact today, may not be so tomorrow. By constantly questioning our current knowledge, we can better understand the world around us.
