Hello! I am so happy to be starting my first year here at McSpedden Elementary! I started teaching seven years ago, after graduating from Texas A&M Commerce. Before that, I was a stay-at-home mom, raising my four kiddos! I have two adult daughters who live way too far away from their mama (Pennsylvania and North Carolina), a son heading to University of Arkansas this fall, and another son who is a junior in high school.
I'm looking forward to building relationships with my students and helping them reach their potential. It's going to be a fabulous year!
