I started my career in Higher Education in 2014 at ACC’s Business Assessment Center. I then transitioned to Area of Study Advising in 2018. My role as an Advisor is to guide students on their path to reaching their educational goals. My ultimate goal is to make a positive difference in the lives of others.

I earned a Bachelor of Science in Biology at University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) and a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Theater emphasis on Acting at Texas State University.

I grew up in South Texas and lived in California for a little blip of my life. I used to play competitive Roller Derby and continue to roller skate for fun. I love to travel to different places to experience a variety of cultures, architecture and natural environments. Dancing gets my blood flowin’ and my mood right. I didn't say I was good at it. I just said I like doing it,haha. My Dachshund mix doggies, Molly and Sadie, are my loves who are constantly giving me the side eye and cuddles.

I am a former elementary PE teacher, but I have since transitioned to higher education at ACC. I have held various positions throughout the years, in departments such as admissions, orientation, and advising. Although I miss working in the gym, I genuinely enjoy the work I do here.

In my free time, I love going to art galleries, live music shows, and dance performances with my partner. Our family includes our amazing 5-year-old boy and our adorable dog, Drake.
