Hello ACA Families! I am honored to be your Head of School for the 2023-2024 school year. I have been a part of the ACA team since 2014 when the school first opened their doors. I have worn many hats over the last 10 years I have been in education and am excited to serve the ACA community again this year. I have served as classroom teacher in third grade, second grade, kindergarten/first grade, a technology specialist, STEAM+ teacher, math remediation teacher, leadership team support, and Head of School. 

I am looking forward to a wonderful school year full of academic growth, social-emotional growth, and community engagement. I feel confident that this will be our best year yet! 

In the spring of 2014 I earned my Elementary Education Bachelor's degree with a focus in reading through East Carolina University. I earned my K-6 North Carolina Elementary Education license and K-12 North Carolina Reading license. In spring of 2022 I completed my Master's degree in School Administration through East Carolina University and earned my School Administrator Principal license, and Curriculum Instruction Specialist license.
