I am a teacher. My undergraduate degree is in Music. I taught high school choral music in Charlotte, NC and also worked with high school children with autism. I taught preschool in Charlotte at two excellent schools. After school, I took care of a boy for 5 years. This included school and bus stop pick-up, after school activities, help with homework and piano lessons, and dinner preparation on occasion. After moving to Asheville, I decided to go back to teaching preschool and I currently teach 3 year olds. I love the arts, whether visual or performing arts. I am extremely creative. Spending some time in nature or outside is very important to me. I am certified to teach Birth - Kindergarten and I am certified in Pediatric First Aid and CPR. I am married and have two grown children. My oldest is a Senior at Appalachian State University and my Read more youngest is a Sophomore at Berklee College of Music in Boston.
