My overall goal this year is to have our students develop ongoing reading habits, learn new strategies for understanding, and develop our writing to grow intellectually as communicators. I do my best to stay current in education, trends, and events, while maintaining the integrity of our history.
Further below, you can learn a bit about me and what I enjoy doing outside of the classroom. I am so excited to be learning with students and collaborating with teachers to ensure students have a learning experience that will develop ongoing habits that last into adulthood.
Warriors say, "Hoka Hey!"

THE MORE THAT YOU READ, THE MORE THINGS YOU WILL KNOW. THE MORE THAT YOU LEARN, THE MORE PLACES YOU'LL GO. - Dr. Seuss
A bit about me - I enjoy Manvel sports, traveling through history, creating and capturing memories with my family, and live music, among a few things.
You can find me at the YMCA instructing weekend group exercise classes, including Spin and Core/Strength Training. I also teach CPR & First Aid to give people the skills needed to save lives.
