I graduated from Texas State University in 1998 with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a focus on Child Psychology/Minor in Social Work.

After graduating, I worked with various Non-profit organizations with Blind and Deaf young adults, At-Risk youth, and Arts from The Heart.  I've also owned by own child centered business.

In 2012, I decided to follow my passion and become a teacher.  In 2013, I started teaching 4th grade at JWE.  I now teach 2nd grade and LOVE it!  I am involved with our GT program and I am a coordinator of the JWE Garden Club.  I have been married to my husband, Deron since 2000.  I have 3 boys, Bryce, Braylon, and Coen.
