I am a 7th grade science teacher and also the Danforth Cheer Coach.  This is my 16th year of teaching, and my 4th at Danforth. I LOVE middle schoolers and I LOVE science, so getting to share my excitement and passion for science with your kids makes this the greatest job in the world. I graduated from Texas A&M University (WHOOP!) with a degree in math and a degree in education.  My husband is a high school athletic director in Austin, and we have 4 kids, ranging from 2nd grade to 11th grade, that go to school in Wimberley.  We love to go camping, and attend sporting events.  In our classroom we have Darwin (a guinea pig), Birdie (a bearded dragon), Georgie (a crested gecko), and a baby tarantula who we are waiting to name until we get to know him.  Go Texans!
