Mrs. Westover

Subject: English

About Me:  
I grew up in Fayetteville and graduated locally from Reid Ross Classical High School. I then pursued my degree and graduated from NC State with my Bachelor's in English. After graduation, I pursued my M.A. in English Literature at East Carolina University. During my educational career, I explored a variety of literature from around the world and ultimately concluded with a thesis concerning the linguistic features of African American literature. I continue to pursue an amateur passion for learning about linguistics.

My goal is to recognize, incorporate, and value a wide variety of cultures in my classroom as well as to prepare my students for the next step whether it be researching and analyzing at a collegiate level or joining the workforce. 

My hobbies include reading the classics and showing dogs.
