Hi there!

  As a Fairmont graduate myself, I am so excited to be back!  In the years between my Firebird experiences, I earned my Bachelor's at Appalachian University in Environmental Biology/Ecology and a minor in Chemistry.  After college I taught as an Outdoor Educator on the Chesapeake Bay,  Minnesota and Clarksville, Ohio.  I finally realized the urge to teach students for longer than a few days...and began the journey of earning my Masters Degree.  I graduated with my Masters in Education, Life Science from Antioch University Midwest.  My first teaching placement was at a locked, juvenile rehabilitation center here in Ohio...and am now thrilled to be walking the halls of Fairmont!

 I look forward to continue being a member of the Firebird community and am committed to helping my students in any way possible.  If you are a parent/guardian, please let me know if there is anything I can do to help your student be successful in Biology!  Being a half-time teacher (Periods 5-7), I am available any day after school to help review or complete make-up work.  Please call or e-mail me with any concerns you may have!
