I am a Texas educator who enjoys developing math and science materials for upper elementary and middle school students! With nearly 20 years of experience in education, I have taught math and science to 5th and 6th graders, served as an instructional coach, and currently work as an administrator. My expertise lies in creating math resources that provide hands-on learning opportunities for students at different academic levels, including English language learners and those at risk.

My own education history

I received my bachelor's degree in education from Sam Houston State University and a Master's Degree in Educational Leadership from Texas A&M Commerce. I am certified in Early Childhood through Grade 4 in all subjects, Mathematics and Science for Grades 4 to 8, and English as a Second Language for all grade levels.
