I am from Ruidoso, New Mexico though I was born in El Paso, Texas and spent my elementary years there. I attended Eastern New Mexico University in Portales, New Mexico, and obtained both my undergraduate and graduate degrees there. I taught junior high and high school in Portales for two years before moving to San Antonio in 2015. I have worked at Eisenhower Middle School ever since. Reading, writing, volleyball, family, and friends are my passions and what my world revolves around. I aim to instill both reading and writing skills in my students, as well as core principles towards being someone who contributes to the world instead of causing harm. I do believe that my job as an educator is to help develop my students' academic, emotional, and social skills. After all, school is just one aspect of a student's life, even if it is where they spend a majority of their time.

I currently teach 7th grade English Language Arts and Reading (ELAR). I also coach volleyball and basketball.
