About Me
Hey y'all!
This is my 9th year of teaching, and my 2nd year at The Ranch. I taught 7th grade Texas History and coached for 2 years, then switched to teaching English II for the last 6 years.
I graduated from Texas A&M University in 2013 with my B.S. degree and from the University of Houston in 2018 with my M.A. degree. I got married in June of 2019; I have a fur child, Autumn; and now have a daughter, Adelyn Rose, who was born June 10!
In any spare time I have, I enjoy working out at Orange Theory and practicing yoga...and reading, of course! My favorite genre is historical fiction.
