I currently teach 7th Grade social studies at Clayton Middle School in Clayton, NC. I attended Clemson University and majored in history with a minor in English. After undergrad I studied Public History at UNC-Charlotte, and during that time I did some substitute teaching and realized that I loved teaching! So I shifted gears and joined up with NCTEACH at NC State (a lateral entry program). I learned so much from this program that I wanted to go back to State to finish my graduate degree, and here I am! Dr. Lee told me about the NLC program, and I was hooked! I've just finished up my second year of teaching so I've still got a lot to learn!
