Welcome! I am very excited about joining the North Augusta High School team beginning the 2022-2023 school year teaching World Geography. I started my career teaching in North Augusta in 2002. I have been a teacher in Aiken County Public Schools since 2011 at CIL at Pinecrest alternative school. I loved my job and the students at CIL, and I know that I will see some of those familiar faces at North Augusta High. I am married to retired Evans High School teacher, Chris Powers, and we live in Graniteville. We do not have children, but love animals from a Kenyan Sand Boa snake to hens & roosters.  I enjoy my animals, music, watching heavy weight boxing, yardwork, and sewing. I look forward to this new teaching experience with you all.
