I am so happy to be learning with you all this semester! TCH 401 is one of my very favorite courses and I love seeing what you all come up with and the ways that you grow as an educator and scholar. This is my 7th year here at ISU, before I came here I was at Georgia College and State University in Milledgeville, GA (I was born and raised in GA 🍑). If this is our first time meeting,  I am an assistant professor of Middle Level Education, and former middle school teacher (I have taught 6th, 7th, and 8th....a majority of my years as a reading teacher working with special education students).
