Meet the Teachers

I was born on May 27, 1994, and grew up in Madison Heights, Virginia.  Blessed with a godly family, we started attending Temple Baptish Church when I was two years old, and I went to Temple Christian School from K-3-12th grade.  When I was five, I was convicted of my sin after a chapel message and became a believer in Jesus. I graduated from Liberty University in 2016 with a degree in Elementary education.  After experiences teaching over seas in Jamaica and Taiwan, I lived in Taiwain from 2017-2012 to teach.  I returned to Virginia in 2021 and have been teaching at Temple since.

I taught 4th and 5th grade Language Arts for four years at an international Christian school, Grace Christian Academy, in Taiwan and two years of 4th grade at Temple

FAMILY

I have been blessed with two godly parents and one older brother, Luke.  Luke lives in Georgia with his wife, Corrine, their daugher Lilly Mae, and sons Chase and Cooper.

HOBBIES

I love to sing, act, and travel.  Being in new places and meeting new people always brings me much joy.  Collecting and taking care of plants is a big hobby in my daily life as well.

WHAT I LIKE ABOUT TEACHING

What I like about teaching is the opportunity to spend an entire academic year with students. Seeing them grow through birthdays, life experiences, and learning new information makes teaching wonderful. Things that were a struggle at the beginning of the year become a goal to achieve by the end of the year. Walking that journey with them is one of the reasons I love to teach.
