I believe all children can learn, but the way in which children are taught must be modified to meet that child's specific learning needs. I also believe that children want and can succeed, but sometimes need encouragement, patience and someone to believe in them. In my opinion, small steps should be rewarded as major milestones; this leads to consistent gains, continuous motivation and life long learning. I received my Bachelor of Science in Education, and Master of Science in Education from the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh, Special Education and Human Services Departments. I am a certified middle school language arts special educator in North Carolina with 6 years teaching experience.

As a graduate of the University of Virginia, I was very dedicated to learning as much as possible. I double majored in Government and Sociology, yet was able to take numerous courses in other areas as well. After earning my undergraduate degree, I decided to pursue graduate school immediately. I was offered Graduate Teaching Assistantships at the University of North Carolina Charlotte.
