Biographical Information

I have taught in Wetzel County for 26 years at three different schools. I began my teaching career at Valley High School in Pine Grove, WV, and spent my first 14 years there. I then became a traveling teacher between Paden City High School, my alma mater, and Magnolia High School for 5 years. I am now a full-time teacher of English at Magnolia High School.

I have taught every grade level of my teaching certification. I am currently teaching English 9, which is my favorite content area. I also am fortunate enough to be the only teacher who is teaching electives. Offering Drama/Novel and Composition I and II provide students with more flexibility in their scheduling, as well as exposing them to various genres of literature.
