Teaching style

I've seen many teaching trends come and go, and I adapt to what I feel is best for my students at the time. I love using hands-on materials and work hard to differentiate my instruction to meet my students' needs.

Awards & shining teacher moments

I’ve been honored with both Teacher of the Year and Coach of the Year, but the recognition that matters most doesn’t come with a plaque. It’s the moments when former students reach out—like the one who served as a teleprompter operator during the Obama administration and now handles communications on a Navy ship. Others have become doctors, engineers, and surveyors. As educators, we plant seeds we may not see bloom for years. Hearing their stories reminds me why we do what we do—and why it’s always worth it.

My own education history

BS in Mathematics for 6-12 from Texas Wesleyan University. Master's in Curriculum and Instruction in Mathematics from University of Texas at Arlington.

Additional biographical information

My greatest joy is my family; they are what keeps me going. I also love to travel and enjoy helping my husband work on his classic cars.
