I am excited to begin my 5th year of teaching 5th grade at Encino Park.  I taught 3rd grade in Richardson ISD for 10 years before taking time off to be with my family.  I have taught preschool, volunteered in the classroom and became a substitute teacher with NEISD after moving to San Antonio.  I am married and we have 2 boys.  Tyler is a mechanical engineer living in Ft. Worth who married his high school sweetheart last year and Justin is a senior at Texas Tech University majoring in Music Education and is currently completing his student teaching in Frisco ISD. I love to watch the Spurs, watch college football and take my dog on long walks.   I look forward to a year of learning and great growth.
