and earned my National Board Certification in 2002. In 1999 I had the honor of being selected as RHS Teacher of the Year, then Graham County Teacher of the Year. I was chosen as Western Regional Teacher of the Year in 2000 and was named a state finalist. For two years I served as a teacher on loan to the Western Regional Education Service Alliance and worked as a teacher recruitment specialist and language arts consultant
