I earned my Bachelor of Arts in English with a minor in history as well as my Master of Education in Educational Administration from Sam Houston State University. With 20 years of experience both teaching and leading in public schools, I feel I have the ability and tools to help all students, from those who excel to those who are struggling. I have taught a course called College Transitions for 6 years and help my graduating seniors with topics such as organization, time management skills, study strategies, and planning for post-secondary education. I love to get to know my students so that I can better assist them in growing and learning.

I am a sports fan, particularly American football, volleyball, basketball, and rugby, all sports with which my family is involved. I also enjoy gardening and cooking, especially in the summer when I have a little more time. I love to travel, having recently been to London and Paris, a bucket list trip for sure!
