Fashion Merchandising 

 Welcome to Family & Consumer Sciences!  

   I hold a Bachelor of Science degree in Home Economics from UNCG and teaching certification from East Carolina University.  After graduating from college I began my career working in retail store management, buying and product development for Dillard's Department Stores then later for Welcome Home Stores, Inc.  As a buyer I traveled across the United States, Mexico and throughout Asia working with vendors, buying, developing and importing products from factories and wholesale companies.  

   It was not until after I married and had children that I discovered my love for teaching.  I was a preschool director and teacher for several years before making the move to Sampson County Schools and the Union district.  I enjoy combining my experience in the business industry and education with teaching areas of Career and Technical Education I am passionate about as well as helping students achieve their goals.
