I have lived in Texas my whole life, growing up in Carrollton. I attended the University of North Texas for my bachelors and I have a masters from Walden University. I have experience teaching 6th, 7th, and 8th grade math for nine years, and I also taught 6^th and 8^th grade science for the past three years as well as spending my very first year teaching abroad in Wuhan, China. In total I have 13 years of teaching experience. My passion is to help students understand the world around them and realize their potential.
