Biography

     As principal I take pride in helping to maintain Garner’s reputation as having the best teachers and the most talented students in NEISD. I truly enjoy being principal here. I am originally from California and moved to Texas in 1974. This is my twenty-seventh year in education. I taught for ten years in Laredo, TX. The past seventeen years have all been in North East ISD, both as a teacher and an administrator. I received my doctoral degree from Texas A&M in College Station in December, 2007.
     As a parent of two grown children, I know the importance of a strong parent/school partnership. I believe it takes all of us to educate your child so that he/she will be prepared for the many challenges ahead. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns. I look forward to working with you.
