    RHS PHONE NUMBER - (601) 898-5023.

     
    Welcome to English I!

       I am a graduate of Ridgeland High School.  After high school, I attended and graduated from The University of Mississippi with a degree in Journalism with minors in English Literature and African American Studies.  After graduation, I moved to Austin, TX and worked in information technology sales.  I was so unhappy, and kept dreaming about becoming a teacher.  I finally quit, moved back home to Ridgeland and earned my teaching license!

      This is my first year at RHS, but my fifth year teaching.  I also serve as the Assistant Tennis Coach.

       I truly believe that being a teacher is a calling.  I am incredibly passionate about teaching.  I look forward to teaching the future leaders of the United States of America!
     
       Please do not hesitate to contact me.  I believe the key to success is communication.  I am more than happy to speak with you when we are both available.
     
    Fun Facts About Me:
     1. I have a dog named Rhett.
      2. I have a younger brother that attended Olde Towne & RHS.
    3. I was a Diamond Girl at RHS (the first freshman to ever make it!).
    4. My favorite color is orange.
    5. My favorite rapper is Drake.
    6. My favorite thing to do when I have down time is to read.
