     About me:  I am thankful to be part of the Patriot family. 2020 began my 10th year with SAHS and my 14th as a School Nurse. I am a 1990 graduate of SAHS and a 1994 graduate of UNCG. I live in the Southern community. I have 3 children, a 2018 graduate of SAHS and 2 currently attending. I help with our cross country team and am the FCA advisor. I enjoy running, kayaking, cycling, swimming, hiking, backpacking and being outside. My goal is to thru hike the entire Appalachian Trail. A new school year brings a lot of new experiences and challenges. We are all in this together.
