I started my education journey in an after-school program from August 2009 to January 2014, where I honed my skills in child engagement and management. After graduating with a Bachelor's degree in Finance from Marshall University in 2014, I pursued a career in early childhood education, driven by my passion for working with children.

I joined a child care program focused on early childhood development, working with children aged 3 to 4. In January 2017, I began working at FABCare while pursuing my Master’s Degree in Elementary Education. I initially worked in the Crawler Classroom, nurturing infants and toddlers until June 2018, and now I teach four-year-olds. I also work in the Cabell County Pre-K classroom.

Additionally, I completed the Apprenticeship for Child Development Specialist and the West Virginia Infant-Toddler programs, enhancing my skills in caring for young learners. My guiding principle is reflected in Walt Disney's quote: "We keep moving forward, opening new doors...because curiosity keeps leading us down new paths," which captures my commitment to growth in my career and personal life.

     I have worked at FAB for 20 years. I first found my love of early childhood in college when I had an undecided major. I then took a part-time job at a child care center back in the early 90s. I fell in love with the early childhood profession. Along with my college hours, I completed the ACDS program in 1992. Being an early childhood educator has brought great joy to my life. I enjoy not only helping a child grow and learn, but I also love being able to show the love of God with each one. On a personal note I am married with two children and in my spare time I enjoy my dogs, football, and needle work.

I started working in childcare in 2014. I have worked with various ages but mostly older infants/younger ones. I love watching some of the little ones develop a personality. I love watching some of the little ones from crawling to taking their first steps.

I began working at FABCare in February 2019 and before coming here I worked at another childcare center for three years. I wasn't sure what kind of work I wanted to do until I became pregnant with my oldest son and started working at a childcare center. I enjoyed watching children discover new things and the excitement in their eyes. I have a certificate for ACDS and I am certified in CPR and First Aid. Alongside work I have two ornery and sweet boys, two cats and a ferret at home.

I've Been with FABCare for four years and have thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. In April, I received my associate degree in early childhood education at MountWest. I work in childcare because I want to have a positive impact on the lives of children, build relationships with children and fellow caretakers, and have the opportunity to learn and grow.

I officially started my journey with FABCare on October 26, 2016. Working with young children is not just a job for me; it's truly a rewarding experience filled with joy and laughter. Each day, I am welcomed by the bright smiles and warm hugs of the children, which brings immense happiness to my heart. 

I hold a Regents Bachelor of Arts in Early Childhood Education from Marshall University. This educational background has equipped me with the knowledge and skills necessary to create a nurturing and stimulating environment for children as they learn and grow.
