I am the school psychologist at Nottingham. I completed my undergraduate degree in Psychology from Virginia Tech in 2015 and attended graduate school at James Madison University for my School Psychology degree. In between undergrad and graduate school, I worked for Falls Church City Public School as a special education paraprofessional. I supported 3rd/4th graders and loved being in the classroom. I grew up in Falls Church City and have enjoyed moving into the Arlington area, especially being able to explore so many new restaurants and coffee shops. Since I currently live in an apartment and can’t have my own garden right now, I have started collecting plants and am constantly adding new ones to my windowsill. I also enjoy traveling, hiking, and spending time with family and friends.

Hello, I am the school social worker for Nottingham. I received my bachelor’s degree of Social Work degree at the University of North Carolina at Pembroke & my Master of Social Work at Fayetteville State University. Prior to starting at APS, I worked 4 years as a school social worker in at Cumberland County Schools in North Carolina. I recently moved to Bowie Maryland with my beloved husband and our son. My interest includes making films, trying new foods from different cultures and traveling. I’m looking forward to working with the Nottingham family. I know we will have a great year.
