This is my Fifth year with Bonham ISD and I am loving it.  I am teaching 1^st grade at Finley-Oates Elementary. 

I worked at a private school for 4 years while I was in college. I did a varierty of jobs, wherever I was needed at the time. I was a teachers aid for multiple grade levels and worked the extended care program for Kinder through 7^th grade every afternoon. 

I married Tony Matthews in April 2014. We have a precious baby boy named Cooper who is almost 3 years old! We have three dogs Paisley, Dally and Carley. I have two nieces (Emily and Kelsie) and two nephews (Kyle and Arrow). I have a huge extended family and we are all very close. 

I enjoy spending time with my family, coloring and crafting. My family enjoys hunting, going to shooting ranges, camping, and hanging out with our friends and family. We love being outside, riding the side by side, and being at the lake.
