I began teaching at County Line in August of 1995 as a PE teacher and a part-time paraprofessional.  In August of 1996 I was hired as a 3^rd grade teacher.  I taught third grade for 14 years and then moved to teach science in 5^th and 6^th grades.  In February of  2016 I moved to the high school to fill-in as a paraprofessional for my son.  I chose to stay in that position to finish out his senior year.  In 2017 I was hired to start the Academic Opportunity Acadamy (AOA). 

I am married to Kevin Shotzman.  We were married in September of 1995.  We have two sons.  Jake, a recent County Line graduate, is a big Razorback and County Line Indian supporter and rider with Ainsley’s Angels of NW AR.  Braden, still in school here at County Line, enjoys hunting, showing cattle, making jigs/lures, trapping, baseball, and being outdoors.  I have one inside “princess”, Maggie.  She is a very spoiled little dachshund.  We have 4 outside dogs, lots of chickens, cattle, and horses. 

My husband and I have a small horse sale business.  When I’m not teaching, I like to be involved with my boys and thier activities. I have recently started running with Ainsley’s Angels.  I also like to organize and craft. I like to read and watch criminal/mystery shows.  My family likes to hunt together and go to exciting new places.
