I have taught kindergarten through seventh grade, worked as a certified school counselor, and established a classroom for emotionally disturbed elementary school students. I have been a professional educator in Texas since 1997. Helping students, families, and teachers get through life one day at a time is my passion!
My teaching style is flexible and organized. I can make spur of the moment changes based on the needs of my students while also being data-driven. I make sure my students feel safe and build their confidence as they learn both academic and social skills in a highly structured and nurturing environment.
