I graduated from the University of North Texas and I have worked in kindergarten and second grade for the past eight years. I have also worked in the medical field as a licensed vocational nurse, but decided to follow my dream and pursue my degree in teaching.  I am married with 3 grown children and I have 4 grandchildren named Abby, Peter, Luke and Lorenzo. I have a basset hound named Gus and two cats named Merlin and Bell.  I enjoy spending time with my family whenever I can and working in my garden.  

I am happy to be here at Jackson Elementary School, and I am excited about the upcoming school year. I am eager to get to know every student in my class. It's going to be an amazing year!
