A mother of two little girls, wife of one fantasy football-loving man, and teacher to hormonal 8th graders, I am an extremely busy (but insanely happy) woman! I have grown up in the Texas Panhandle for all of my 29 years of life, and enjoy the friendliness and hometown-values this area has to offer. Teaching and writing are two of my great passions in life (besides reading anything I can get my hands on) and I actually look forward to work each day. I'm hoping that I can contribute what I have learned during my seven years of teaching, and offer my fellow educators a fresh perspective on a variety of topics within the realms of education and instruction.
