It is great to be a teacher at Trent Park Elementary School! I have a Bachelors Degree in Biology from Meredith College and a Masters Degree in Science Education from East Carolina University. I started my career as a biology student teacher at Athens Drive High School in Raleigh. After that I taught Biology and AP Biology at Pamlico County High School. A move back to Raleigh put me teaching at Carroll Middle School where I taught until I had children. Our family moved to New Bern in 1995 and I began teaching at Trent Park in 1998. I have taught science to every grade from kindergarten through 12th grade! I love teaching science at Trent Park and providing instructional support to grades 3-5. My husband, Dwayne, and I have two daughters, Claire and Taylor. Claire is a junior at Duke University and she is spending the fall semester studying abroad in France. Taylor is a senior at New Bern High School and is working on deciding where she would like to go to college.. When I am not at school I am usually watching my daughters play soccer or ride horses.
