Subjects I Teach: Environmental Science and Chemistry

Activities I Assist With: Marching Band 

Welcome to the world of environmental science and chemistry for the 2024-2025 school year! I am very excited to be partnering with you this year! I know the reputation for academic excellence very well here at Union Grove as I am a UGHS alumni, class of 2014. After leaving Union Grove, I went on to Georgia College and State University to obtain my Bachelors of Science degree where I majored in Environmental Science and minored in Geology. As an environmental science major, I participated in many undergraduate research projects. These projects included assessing seed bank diversity of inland and coastal freshwater wetlands, forest tree species diversity and soil chemical characteristics, occurrence and distribution of salt, fresh, and brackish water over the extent of Georgia's barrier islands, and wetland surface and groundwater chemistry during flooding periods. I am very excited to be putting my degree to good use by teaching environmental science. I also have my Masters of Arts degree in Teaching Broadfield Secondary Science from Georgia Southern University. I have been teaching since 2017, and I am looking forward to a fantastic year. Go Wolverines!
