I was born in Iowa, but moved to Texas when I was in 5th grade. I graduated from Mission High school, then went to Southwest Texas State University and got my degree in Elementary Ed with a specialization in Health. I started teaching at NEISD in the fall of 1997 as a 5th grade teacher. I moved to Wetmore Elementary School when it opened in 2001. At Wetmore I started as a 5th grade teacher, but have taught 3rd and 4th grade. I'm excited to be in 4th grade again this year!
