I am a born and raised Texan, growing up here in the Flower Mound area.  I graduated from Marcus High School and then attended what is now Texas State University with a degree in Nutrition.  After working as a dietician for a short stint, I decided that my passion was teaching.  I started teaching 16 years ago at Northwest High School where I was also the cheer coach.  When my son was born I took three years off to be a stay at home mom.  In 2008, I started teaching special education at Wellington Elementary.  I am now starting my 3rd year as a 5th grade Math and Science teacher.  

I have 3 children ages 11, 7, and 5.
