About me
This is my 12th year of teaching. I worked in the financial services industry for more than 20 years before deciding I wanted to do something more meaningful. I appreciated my own children's teachers so much, I decided to become a teacher like them. Since literature was always my first love, I decided to teach English. I returned to college and earned a Master of Arts degree in teaching. I live in Harvest with my husband and three children. My daughter just graduated from Argyle High School in the 2025-2026 school year!
I will be teaching PSAT/SAT Prep, AP English IV, and College Readiness in the 2026-2027 school year.

School Supply List
AP English IV:
