I am truly honored to serve as the Assistant Principal of McDougle Elementary where Dolphins truly thrive as a family!

I am a proud native of a small town (Kelford, NC) in Bertie County, where I grew to love education and believe that every child deserves a quality education despite his or her background. I earned a Bachelor's degree in English and Education from Wake Forest University and a Master's degree in School Administration from The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

My career began at an early age, and I am entering into my sixth year in the public education. My commitment to fostering a school community where everyone can learn and feel welcome runs deep, and I am a firm believer that through collaboration, positivity, and inclusion of all stakeholders, we can do whatever it takes to help all students achieve academic success!
