Hi! I teach the third grade at Green Hope Elementary. When I first started teaching, I taught first grade at Bugg Creative Arts and Science Elementary School in Raleigh for five years. Then I taught a Year 3/4 class (Grades 2/3) in a small village school in Balsham, England, which is near Cambridge. After that I taught a fourth grade class at Laurel Park Elementary for one quarter while their teacher was on maternity leave. I have been fortunate to be at Green Hope Elementary since 2010.
I love to travel, whether it's exploring a new city or visiting places with natural beauty. I look forward to learning about Germany's culture, foods, schools, and use of renewable energy!

Hi! I'm the proud mascot of Green Hope Elementary School. I love my school because all of the teachers and students are so wonderful! I love soaring around GHE and seeing what they're up to! I can't wait to travel to Germany. Based on my research, there are a few types of falcons that live there that don't live in the United States. How exciting!

Each year Go Global NC's Global Teachers program travels to a different country and this year they are going to Germany. Learn more about Go Global NC and the different ways they bring a global perspective to NC here: goglobalnc.org/.

Ten recipients have been selected from Chapel Hill-Carrboro, Chatham, Durham, Orange and Wake County school systems. There will be a total of 28 teachers from across North Carolina.
The goals of this program are:
• To gain insight into Germany’s history, culture and education system
• To learn more about technological innovation, particularly in renewable energy and sustainable development practices in Germany
• To use technology to collaborate with other program participants on ways to implement global perspectives and technology into the classroom
