This is my second year at OPHS and I will teach Gifted and AP English . This will be my fourth year with the Ouachita Parish School District. 

 I taught English at Richwood High School for the 21-22 and 22-23 school years.  Before that, I taught 7^th grade Social Studies at Caldwell Parish Junior High. 

I have been married to my husband since 2005.  We have five children together.  Our children are 18, 16, 9,8, and 1 year old.  We have 4 girls and one very active little boy.  Only one of my children attends OPHS.  Abagail is a Junior and plays softball for the Lady Lions.  We have three dogs, Charlie ( a Siberian Husky), Paisley ( a mutt), and Mr. Banks (a standard poodle). 

When I am not teaching, I love to watch baseball and softball.  I also like to do various crafting projects and home improvement/diy projects.
