Hi, my name is Tee. Parents, students, and coworkers, yes, just calling me "Tee" is perfectly okay and preferable!

This will be my second year at Vines teaching honors chemistry and honors biology! I am also the chemistry team lead and one of Vines' LASER sponsors.

I graduated from Texas Tech University (RAIDER POWER) in 2016 with a degree in Zoology and a minor in Chemistry. After graduating, I pursued a career in veterinarian medicine and attended one year of vet school at Iowa State University, but I ultimately learned that education was my passion. Before becoming a classroom teacher, I worked as a private tutor where I tutored middle school, high school, and college students in biology, inorganic and organic chemistry, physics, statistics, and algebra.

I truly believe in the power of education and its ability to get any student anywhere they want to go in life, and I hope that beyond the content in my classes, students will simply learn how to be socially and emotionally responsible, lifelong learners. 

I'm excited about the upcoming year at Vines, and I can't wait to meet all of you!
