I am a native of Huntsville. I attended Highlands and Mountain Gap Elementary, then continued on to Mountain Gap Middle. I graduated from Grissom before attending UAH for my undergraduate degree in Elementary Education. I am blessed to join the Chapman family for the 2024-2025 year. We are off to a wonderful start!

My husband Craig and I have been married for five years. Our world revolves around our two rambunctious children. Emma is four and Cooper will be three years old in November. In our spare time, we enjoy traveling and listening to bluegrass music.
