About The Teacher

This is my 8th year of teaching Texas students.  I am originally from the 
Dallas/Fort Worth area, but my family and I moved to Houston so that my 
husband could complete his medical residency at the Texas Medical Center.  I 
have a B.S. in Applied Learning and Development from the University of Texas 
and am currently working on my Master's degree in Education at Houston 
Baptist University.  I have a love of learning that I want to share with my 
students.  It is my hope that every student will benefit from being exposed 
to a safe and academically rich learning environment.

When I am not working, I love spending time with my husband, two small 
children (Molly age 4 and Cooper age 3), and our old basset hound Phoebe.  
We travel to the Dallas area frequently to visit our family.  I love working 
at Pershing and showing my Panda Pride!
