Welcome
A little about myself
|
|
I am originally from Texas. I moved to North Carolina when I was a child. I grew up in Onslow County where I would start school and later graduate in 2004. I went to North Carolina Wesleyan College where I received my degree in education with a double major in History and English graduating in 2008.
I have played sports all my life. I have played soccer, baseball, and basketball up to middle school. I played football, wrestled, and ran track and field from middle school all through high school. I would later go to North Carolina Wesleyan College to play for the Battling Bishops on their inaugural team. In the four years we played hard, smart, and together and would later win the 2007 USA South Conference Championship. This is my first year at East Wake Middle School after three years at Carnage Magnet Middle School and am looking forward to getting the year started. This will be my eighth year teaching. I have taught social studies and language arts for the previous seven years. |
