raised in a
small town about a hour and fifteen minutes north of Valdosta called

Check Out My Special Talents
My talents are very limited however, I do have a strong interest in American Sign Language. My skills are considered Intermediate therefore, I know a enough to communicate with the Deaf and or hard of hearing. I am an active member in the ASL Club and willing to give most of my time towards helping the Deaf Community to be respected. We've recently started a petition that involve the Deaf Community going to Valdosta's theathre to see close caption films. As of now everything has been successful. Some accomplishments I made are recieving an Associate Degree from Abraham Baldwin Ag. College and getting through the first semester of my teacher's proffessional courses.
Something Special
Something special I would like to do is master my teaching to the point where I will be able to teach children with disabilities without the assistance of medication. I feel there are many ways of grabing the attention of young children and hopefully throughout my educational and teaching experience I will accomplish my goal.
Look Who's In My Top Five
1. Shelby Mustang is one
favorite website because I'm a Mustang Fanatic. I have been a fan of
the Shelby's Mustang since I was a little girl. If I weren't pursuing a
teaching career I would probably do something with cars.

2. HGTV start at home is another one of my favorite websites. One of the things I enjoy is watching HGTV with my mother. There we are with our pencil and notebook, nose aimed straight at the television ready to soak in any & everything that graps our attention. http://www.hgtv.com/
3. Food Network.com is like heaven to me. I LOVE to eat. If I'm not thinking about assignments that are due, my brain automatically switch to wanting food. I'm not a very good cook however, this website provides wonderful detailed recipes on what to cook. http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/cooking/
4. The Teacher's Corner is an awesome website. It contains hundreds of ideas on how to set up your class, bulletin board, lesson plans, teacher's resources and alot more. http://www.theteacherscorner.net/
5. Hobby Lobby to me is a place where a teacher can go and have a field day. Everything a teacher needs to organize and make her room feel "teachy" can be found at Hobby Lobby. http://www.hobbylobby.com/home.cfm
