About The Teacher

I grew up in Austin and went through the RRISD.  I am excited to 
have the opportunity to teach in the school district I grew up in at 
Gattis.  I graduated at Texas A&M in Corpus Christi.  I played all kinds of 
sports (volleyball, basketball) growing up and got the opportunity to play 
for the TAMUCC softball team as one of their pitchers.  

After graduating, I moved back home (well a little further north to Round 
Rock) to be closer to my family.  My sister's family lives in Round Rock, my 
brother's family lives in Austin, and my mom and dad now live in 
Georgetown.  

I got hired on at Gattis soon after.  This will be my 6th year at Gattis.
 
I love teaching 1st grade, but of course there are other things I love to do 
as well.  I love playing or watching any sport (especially baseball-Go 
Braves!), jogging or working out (my stress-reliever), and reading.

Mission For Our Class

We will work together and have positive attitudes to achieve our academic 
goals as well as building friendships.
