Hello Coyotes and Parents! Welcome to 4th grade! I am so excited to have your child in class this year. This is my 8th year here at Canyon Ridge Elementary and I have been teaching special education for 23 years.  I previously taught in Alice ISD and Corpus Christi ISD before being a CR Coyote!  I was born and raised in Kingsville, Texas (home of the King Ranch).  I graduated with my Bachelors in Special Education (Texas A & I University) and a Masters in Special Education/Educational Diagnostician (Texas A & M University-Kingsville).  When I am not at school, I enjoy spending time with my family, friends and traveling. I am so excited about another amazing year! If you have any questions, email is always the best way to reach me.
