Hello! Welcome to this 2011-2012 school year! I am excited about all of the learning that takes place here at Vaughan.
This is my fourth year here and I am so blessed to have the opportunity to work with the students, parents, faculty and staff here! I have worked as a speech-language pathologist since 1978. I attended Mississippi College in Clinton, Mississippi, and completed both my bachelor's and master's degrees at Mississippi University for Women in Columbus, Mississippi. This is my 17th year in the Cobb County School District. Before coming to Vaughan, I worked at Birney Elementary School and Bells Ferry Elementary School. Prior to working in Cobb, I worked in other school systems in both Mississippi and Georgia, a speech and hearing clinic, nursing homes and hospitals, centers for preschoolers with multiple disabilities and served children through my own private practice. In addition to holding a teaching certificate, I am licensed by the Georgia Board of Examiners in Speech-Language Pathology and am nationally certified by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association.
My husband and I have been married for twenty-seven years and we have two sons. My favorite thing to do is spend time with my family at home. When I'm not busy with my family or with school, I enjoy gardening and I operate a calligraphy business from a corner studio in our home.
