I have been teaching at East Beauregard Elementary since 2012. I began teaching 4th grade Mathematics and still hold that position today.
Prior to teaching at East Beauregard Elementary, I was a stay-at-home for 13 years. My love for children, hunger for knowledge, and passion to teach led me to pursue a degree in education.
My husband, Chad, and I will celebrate our 23rd wedding anniversary this year. We have two beautiful and intelligent children, Conner and Kara. Conner is an EBHS 2017 graduate and attends McNeese State University. He is a Biology Major with a concentration in Pre-Med and resides in Lake Charles. Kara is a 7th grade Banner Roll student at East Beauregard Junior High. We love spending time outdoors camping, boating, fishing, and taking care of our animals. My daughter currently has 2 horses, 2 goats, and a donkey. We also have several head of cattle and are in the process of adding a chicken coop. We also love trivia games and attending church together at Texas Avenue Baptist.
In my spare time, I love being outside taking care of yard work, helping with my husband’s never-ending projects, and watching my daughter take care of her animals. I also like to read, solve puzzles, and play board games. Of course, none of that gets done until my house is clean. Yes, I’m very adamant about keeping a clean house!
