Spotswood High School
I graduated from Longwood University in 2009 with a Bachelor of Arts in history and a concentration in secondary education. I spent my first year of teaching working with a service organization in Zambia at an all-girls boarding school. I then returned home to the Harrisonburg area to substitute while trying to find a full time job. When a history position was difficult to find, I got my endorsement in Earth Science and started teaching at Spotswood High School in 2011. I have been teaching Earth Science and Environmental Science at Spotswood since then. I have also worked with various groups and clubs over the years. I am currently one of the adult advisors for our Sources of Strength program.
