Welcome! I couldn't be more excited about being a kindergarten teacher and being a part of the Cove Creek faculty. I graduated from Appalachian State in 2011 with my bachelor's degree in Elementary Education and, ten years later, I have now moved back to Boone to live with my husband, Ben. We got married this past June and honeymooned in Saint Lucia! I enjoy being active, being in the sunshine/water, spending time with Ben (that means cattle and NC State football games), our families, and at our church. 

This is my 12th year teaching and my first year teaching kindergarten (most of my experience has been in first and third grade).  I especially love helping students learn to read and I am excited to see all the growth (social, emotional and academic) our students will make this year.  Mrs. Audra will be our assistant and she has already helped Mrs. Bolick with so many things! Kindergarten is going to be so fun and we will learn a lot this year. Go Raiders!
