About The Teacher

I believe teaching is my calling.  Having completed a business degree from 
Baylor University, I had goals to “conquer the corporate world.”  However, 
after spending four years as an employment counselor with Texas Employment 
Commission, I decided to enter the teaching field.  While observing adults 
who could not complete their own job applications, I made a decision to 
pursue my teaching certificate at the University of Texas at Arlington 
because I wanted to make a difference on the local level.  Teaching has 
proved to be a wonderful profession for me.  Students with whom I work know 
that I believe in “respect for respect” in the classroom.

Mission For The Class

My goal is to help students find their favorite author and develop a life-
long love for reading and writing.
