Professional Bio
Bonjour! I'm a proud product of Haywood County Schools. Folkmoot USA, North Carolina's International Folk Festival, is where my passion for Global Education was ignited at a young age. My teaching philosophy revolves around formulating dynamic and standards-based instruction that incorporates authentic resources and cutting-edge technology. I am committed to fostering a love for language that transcends boundaries. When I'm not sharing the beauty of the French language with my students, you can catch me strolling through farmer's markets, traveling when possible, unleashing my creativity through crafting, relishing in snow days, and savoring every sip of coffee.
