I am grateful to be serving as the Assistant Principal of J.N. Fries Magnet School. Before working at J.N. Fries Magnet School, I was a classroom teacher and Multi-Classroom Leader at Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools. During my time in CMS, I was named Teacher of the Year at my school (2018). Recently, I spent time in the private sector working as a consultant, supporting multiple school districts across North Carolina, specifically Winston-Salem Forsyth County Schools. I received my Masters in School Administration as part of the Aspiring High School Principals Program at The University of North Carolina at Charlotte.  I am currently completing a doctoral degree in Educational Leadership: Superintendency Concentration, Ed.D from The University of North Carolina at Charlotte. My husband and I live in Concord with our two children. We enjoy spending time together visiting the beautiful parks in the area. I enjoy reading, visiting historical sites, trying new coffee shops, and spending time with friends and family. I am a devoted Pittsburgh Penguins hockey fan — having grown up in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania before moving to North Carolina in 2014.
