Bio
I grew up in Kentucky and Indiana and moved to the Midsouth in 2001 to attend college. I graduated from Rhodes College with a BA in German in 2005. In addition, I studied at the University of Tuebingen in Germany. I am certified to teach German and English.
I began my teaching career in 2006 at Southaven High School. In 2014, I moved to Lewisburg High School, where I teach German and PSAT/ACT Prep. In addition, I am the co-sponsor of the National Honor Society and the National German Honor Society.
