I have been teaching since Fall of 2014, so this is my 6th year and I love every minute of it. I currently teach AP® Computer Science Principles and AP® Computer Science A. I've taught AP®CSP for a year and a half, and I am working on my 3rd year for AP®CSA. I am also the owner of a Tailwind Tribe called "Computer Science Education" where we share CS resources.

My teaching style is different than many teachers. Most of my classes are half and half, in that, I teach new material for half the time and the students work the other half. Also, I model my classroom after the atmosphere of Google. The students are allowed to work puzzles, do logic puzzles, and play video games if they finish their work.

I have a Bachelor's degree from ETSU in Mathematics and a Master's degree from MTSU in Mathematics, as well. I learned to program at both ETSU and MTSU. I used to know 7 different computer languages. I loved teaching so much at MTSU that I went to the University of Tennessee to receive my licensure.
