Hello SMA Wildcats! 

Welcome to the family! I am so blessed to be able to start another year at South McKeel Academy where I get the daily opportunity to spark creativity, ignite learning and develop the gifts each student in my classroom has. 

I graduated from Florida Southern College in 2017 where I earned a B.S in Elementary Education with an ESOL endorsement/Orton-Gillingham Certification and a minor in Business Administration. Since then, I have acquired new training certifications and endorsements (i.e. Kagan, BrainSpring, ESE, Reading, Civics Seal Endorsement, etc.). I am continuously seeking professional development opportunities to help keep my classroom learning fresh and engaged. I will graduate with my Masters in Transformational Curriculum and Instruction from FSC in the fall of 2026. 

"You can find magic wherever you look. Sit back and relax, all you need is a book." These words by Dr. Seuss express my feelings about reading- it is truly a magical experience and can take you many places. Let's create some magic this year, Wildcats!
