About Me

Hey there! I oversee K-12 Libraries for Rutherford County Schools. I have worked in education for 16 years and have degrees and endorsements in Administration and Supervision, Library Sciences, Reading Specialty, and English. I enthusiastically welcome anyone needing a second set of eyes (or ears) to hear about your ventures in advocacy, literacy, education law, collection development for school libraries, and the 21st century digital landscape. I also spend a significant amount of time with Destiny Library Manager, working with vendors, and opening new school libraries. Ask away!
